The graphics of the game have received overwhelmingly negative feedback, with many users describing them as minimal, glitchy, and reminiscent of placeholder assets. While some appreciate the art style, it often fails to meet expectations, appearing cheap and poorly executed in full screen. Overall, the visuals are criticized for lacking polish and coherence, contributing to a frustrating gameplay experience.
- “Stunning graphics.”
- “The art style is just amazing.”
- “On the flip side though it does contain quite nice graphics even though it feels a bit like the green is overused everywhere and it has controller support which is a nice addition.”
- “At first, I was kind of let down by the mostly negative reviews, and the initial impression was a confirmation of what is said about the game: bad controls, rather ugly graphics, and really bad (randomly generated) level design.”
- “The graphics are really moderate and still look like placeholders; the engine is Unity3D, and as of how the game is right now, anyone can make this in a few days following the basic Unity tutorials for platformers.”
- “The graphics are bad; it looks like it was made in MS Paint.”
stability

The game suffers from significant stability issues, including numerous bugs, awkward hitboxes, and problematic level generation that can lead to frustrating gameplay experiences. Players report glitches that can disrupt gameplay, such as graphical errors and unresponsive controls, making the overall experience feel amateurish and incomplete.
- “The game is buggy, the pseudo-random (badly procedurally generated) levels that half reset when you die are sometimes impossible (two locked doors and one key). The half-second blood splatter from Super Meat Boy is replaced by a black screen with the hero falling, which means sometimes you die without seeing what killed you. This, combined with the weird hitboxes, makes the game more frustrating than it needs to be.”
- “There are glitches that can actually break gameplay. For example, in the boss room with the ghost, sometimes the rotating platforms just start drifting, eventually making it impossible to reach the exit.”
- “Game is buggy, no menu, no options to change commands/binds.”
