The graphics are notably impressive for a student project, featuring a strong visual presentation and an interesting sci-fi art style inspired by Portal. However, the high graphical demand and lack of customizable options like post-processing make it less accessible for lower-end PCs, suggesting the need for optimization. Overall, the visuals are a standout but may require better performance tuning.
- “Impressive graphics for a student project, on Unity of all things.”
- “Strong visual presentation overall, with good graphics and an interesting sci-fi aesthetic clearly inspired by Portal.”

The game suffers from poor optimization, resulting in unstable performance and frequent frame drops even on high-end hardware. This significantly impacts the gameplay experience, particularly in platforming sections, and improvements in performance and level design are needed.

- “Badly optimized and pretty painful platforming sections.”

The gameplay features enjoyable parkour mechanics and solid graphics but is hindered by frequent bugs, particularly with the double jump detection and wall running. Some movement elements, like the wall jump, lack sufficient boost, impacting fluidity compared to similar titles. Overall, the parkour-focused action is promising but currently marred by significant technical issues.
- “The double jump mechanic: at the beginning of every jump the first jump gets recognized as 'used' but this also collides sometimes when wall running or even at just slightly scratching some surfaces, it detects as if you have jumped and so in consequence it takes your first jumps.”
- “The wall jump: I feel it can have a little more boost to it, but it's mainly due to my obsession with having a game with movement mechanics similar to Titanfall 2. There were some moments I felt that I was lacking boost or velocity (not speed, due to the terms being different, but I won't get too technical).”
- “The double jump mechanic: at the beginning of every jump, the first jump is recognized as 'used,' but this also collides sometimes when wall running or just slightly scratching some surfaces, causing the jump to be detected as used prematurely.”
- “A parkour-focused action game with significant problems.”
- “I like the graphics and it's got fun parkour mechanics but it's definitely too buggy for me.”
