The gameplay is functional and straightforward, though it currently shows signs of being in early access, such as bugs like returning to the main menu when changing settings. While the simple mechanics may not appeal to everyone, the developer is actively communicating plans for future content updates, which offers some promise for improvement.
“It's definitely still early access, but the gameplay is there.”
“Game controls well, and the game mechanics are simple enough, which may turn off some people with the $21 price tag. However, this is early access, and the one-person developer plans to add more content, which I believe due to their communication on their personal feeds.”
“The gameplay shows promise, and I look forward to seeing how it evolves as the developer continues to update the game.”
“It's definitely still early access (changing settings in the pause screen will return you to the main menu) but the gameplay is there.”
“Game controls fine and the game mechanics are simple enough, which may turn off some people with the $21 price tag. This review was written a half hour in, and there could be more to this game. Though this is early access, the one-person developer plans to add more content, and I'm inclined to believe them due to their communication on their personal feeds.”

The story aspect of the game is largely considered optional, with players needing to endure lengthy fade-to-black animations to access the narrative content, which has led to frustration among users.
“There are just some optional texts with the story (you need to watch long fade-to-black animations to reach the story).”

The game suffers from significant optimization issues, with players reporting frequent performance problems, including random hiccups lasting half a second during gameplay, particularly when firing weapons.
“There are a ton of performance problems, like I get random hiccups for half a second when firing a gun.”

Users express a desire for more customizable graphics settings, indicating that while the current visuals are satisfactory, the addition of control options would enhance the overall experience. There is an expectation that such features may be implemented in future updates.
