The gameplay has been criticized for its overly simplified mechanics and frustrating vine and ladder interactions, which can lead to unwieldy controls and random character actions. While some users find it not the worst experience and worth the money, many agree that improvements are needed for a smoother gameplay experience.
“I feel like the gameplay should be made a little smoother, but definitely worth the money.”
“✔ simple gameplay”
“As for the gameplay, it's not the worst I've seen.”
“This is, unfortunately, a waste of time, with the lack of a basic exit button (use alt+f4) and overly simplified gameplay and mechanics.”
“- Ridiculously unwieldy vine and ladder mechanics that force you to grab on if passed by while airborne (annoying) and seemingly randomly make you jump off instead of climb up when pressing up (unacceptably bad).”
“What's even the point of this mechanic?”

The game features beautiful pixel graphics and cute animations that are generally well-received, but many reviewers feel that the visuals are undermined by a lack of engaging gameplay and a coherent story. Some criticize the use of generic assets that appear to be purchased from an asset store, suggesting a lack of originality. While the graphics are praised for their aesthetic appeal, they are ultimately seen as wasted on a platforming experience that fails to deliver satisfying mechanics.
“Cute graphics and animations.”
“It has pretty nice graphics and it can run on a toaster (believe me).”
“The visuals are certainly nice.”
“The game engine and graphic assets seem to have been purchased wholesale from an asset store with little to no modification.”

The story aspect of the game is criticized for lacking depth, purpose, and a sense of achievement, with some reviewers feeling that the beautiful pixel graphics are underutilized in service of a weak narrative.
“Beautiful pixel graphics wasted on a game with no real story, purpose, or sense of achievement.”

The game's music is criticized for being repetitive and uninspired, featuring only one classic rock-sounding chiptune track that fails to fit the game's atmosphere. This lack of variety detracts from the overall experience, as players are left with a monotonous soundtrack throughout most levels.
“There's only one in-game music track for most of the levels: some boring, unfitting classic rock-sounding chiptune.”
“Now, aside from the controls, this game has a repetitive soundtrack, which is basically one song.”
