The graphics of the game have been widely criticized for their poor quality, resembling amateurish artwork and outdated retro pixel art rather than contemporary standards. Reviewers note that the visuals appear to be a haphazard mix of low-effort designs, lacking both budget and talent, resulting in a lackluster experience that cannot be improved through resolution adjustments or other tweaks. Overall, the visual presentation is deemed extremely low and unappealing.
- “This one isn't exactly a Unity asset flip; if it was, the graphics would be better. But it does look like either someone's homework assignment or someone just copy-pasted a tutorial/demo for a Unity platformer and put their own skin on it. Either way, it's garbage.”
- “The artwork here is terrible. It's a blend of old retro pixel 'art' used as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics, and some of the most amateurish MS Paint style drawings I've ever seen.”
- “It's unclear if this is due to a lack of budget to hire someone who can do graphics properly or a lack of talent. Regardless, the overall visual quality of the game is extremely low as a result of these decisions.”

- “I spent hours grinding for resources, but it felt like I was just going in circles without any real progress.”
