The game's stability is criticized for being significantly buggy and slow, leading to frustrating gameplay experiences.

Overall, the game's performance detracts from the enjoyment and can prevent players from completing even the initial levels.

Since your running speed is poor, jumping's the only option and since the attack is pretty anti-air... you get the idea.)”
- “So damn buggy I couldn't get past the first level.”
- “And that game I hyperlinked is a successful flash game and is a fun platformer, but it's a touch buggy and a touch slow.”
