  • graphics
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics in this game have been widely criticized for their low-quality visuals, resembling simplistic low poly stick figures rather than detailed 3D models. While players can adjust settings for better performance, the overall aesthetic is deemed poor, with issues like bad camera angles and a lack of visual clarity between characters. Users suggest that the developers should consider more sensible graphics defaults to enhance gameplay experience.

    • “If you are using a laptop that cannot run over the top games, then you might want to go for low graphics, which still looks good but you get better frames.”
    • “Given the graphics, lowering the settings to match gives okay performance.”
    • “It was a paid product featuring laughably poor red vs blue low poly stick figure designs instead of detailed PC visuals.”
    • “While you can tweak resolution and controls, the visuals are some of the worst I've seen in a 3D game.”
    • “Bad graphics, poor performance, terrible camera angles, and no death or suicide when flipped out of the level.”
  • gameplay
    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally described as responsive and polished, though some users find it simplistic and lacking depth, leading to a perception of being overpriced. While there is potential for fun, many feel that the current mechanics do not fully capitalize on that promise.

    • “Gameplay seems polished.”
    • “Cool game and I see potential, but as of right now, the game has very simple mechanics.”
    • “Cool game and I see potential, but as of right now the game has very simple mechanics, making it seem overpriced.”
    • “Gameplay seems polished, but it could've added something better than Mean Greens (if you even know what that was).”
    • “The gameplay is okay.”
  • optimization
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's optimization has been widely criticized, with users reporting poor graphics, subpar performance, and problematic camera angles. Many feel that the lack of polish and numerous performance issues are unacceptable for a fully released title, suggesting that it feels more like an early access product. Overall, the consensus indicates significant room for improvement in optimization.

    • “Given the graphics, lowering the settings to match gives okay performance.”
    • “This game is zero optimized.”
    • “I mean, I would get it if this was an early access game, but no, it's not. There are several issues and several things to look into in terms of performance and player sorting. Clearly, you were high as a kite while coding because I don't see a polished product whatsoever.”
    • “Bad graphics, poor performance, terrible camera angles, and no death or suicide when flipped out of the level.”
  • music
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “The music is good and the AI is brutal, but regardless of mode, they all just want to kill each other and ignore the objective.”

    • “Fucking hate this game its shit you can barely play it at all and not to get started on the music its so shit and wont fucking shut up like fuck off this game is shit and i recommend”
  • story
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is criticized for being underdeveloped, as the developers relied too heavily on player-versus-player interactions instead of investing in single-player content, including narrative depth, NPCs, and engaging level design. This lack of focus on storytelling has left players feeling that the game is lacking in rich, designed content.
