The graphics of the game have been criticized for being unpolished and average, with numerous bugs and rendering issues affecting character models. Reviewers noted instances of distorted figures and exaggerated animations, suggesting that the game feels more like an early alpha version rather than a finished product. Overall, there is a consensus that significant improvements are needed to enhance the visual experience.
“It seems like a neat premise, but it definitely needs some polishing as the graphics are wonky and character models have rendering issues. In the two times I loaded it up, the rival gym manager was squished and had no arms, and several times I had clients using equipment where their legs would expand to about four times the size. I would love to be able to do more in the prologue to see what the full version will really be like; I feel like this was only a sampling of a small section of the game.”
