Overall, the graphics of the game are widely praised for their beauty and clarity, enhancing the overall visual experience. However, some users feel that certain elements, like the block designs, could better align with the game's aesthetic. While the visuals are generally well-received, there are mixed opinions regarding the audio quality, with some players noting it as a drawback.
“Beautiful graphics and visuals, challenging stages (at least to me lol), and lots of secrets and collectibles.”
“The graphics are beautiful and the scenes are so enjoyable.”
“Though, one minor thing... the rows of blocks you have to freeze or destroy don't exactly seem to mesh with the aesthetic of the game. I think a style similar to Metroid 1's tiles would work well instead.”
“I added this game as soon as I saw its graphics.”
