The game suffers from significant stability issues, with numerous bugs and glitches that make it feel unfinished. Players report problems with the user interface, inability to save settings, and erratic behavior when interacting with game elements, leading to a frustrating experience overall. Many feel it is not worth the price due to these persistent issues.
- “This game is really buggy and feels unfinished.”
- “You can't save the settings you change; when you change settings, everything in the game goes mad while you're typing. Selecting a boat is buggy; when you click, it wants to just scroll down. Pretty shore ships don't collapse onto themselves like a building falling down when they hit the sea floor. Even in shallow waters, ground contact = disintegrate into nothing almost always.”
- “But when you click on one, the thing just glitches and doesn't spawn it in.”

The graphics of the game are described as lacking and not demanding, leading to frequent crashes regardless of the player's hardware capabilities. While some users find it a cheap and fun option for casual play, the overall graphical quality and stability are criticized, making it hard to justify even its low price.
- “This game has made me question things; the first thing I questioned is why this game is 1 dollar. This game isn't even worth 1 cent. I could find 1000 more useful things for 1 dollar. I have never had a game crash on me before; I've never had a game crash just from clicking 1 button. Any button, in fact, crashes the game. I can play BeamNG Drive with the highest quality graphics and not hit 1 lag spike.”
- “Which is the fault of both my PC and the lacking graphical settings.”
- “It is not a demanding game on graphics.”
