The monetization strategy of the game has been heavily criticized as a cash grab, with accusations of it being an asset flip using a GameMaker Studio template. The game was quickly bundled with other low-quality titles and is associated with fake reviews, further undermining its credibility and value.
“The developer, Atomic Fabrik/Cristian Manolachi, took a template from GameMaker Studio, slapped a couple of asset-flipped sprites on it, and dumped the results onto Steam as a cash grab scam.”
“To cement the position of this asset flip as nothing but a cash grab, it was dumped onto cheap daily indie game shovelware bundles very shortly after launch.”
“They're all written in either Russian or broken English, appear almost immediately after the game launched on Steam, all have a direct Steam purchase of the game, and the accounts are used consistently to write fake reviews for asset flips and other cash grabs/scams.”

“The music is repetitive and becomes annoying after just a short play session.”
