The game's story is criticized for being bland and lacking depth, revolving around a simplistic "trapped in TV land" trope where the player must save their sister. While some find the premise amusing, the overall execution is seen as uninspired, with minimal setup and a straightforward progression that fails to engage players.
“The story is plain and simple: you are transported into a video game to save your sister - sounds easy enough, right?”
“Gameplay is funny, story very good .. (y)”
“The whole game is based on the 'trapped in TV land' trope, where you have to save your sister from the game world a la Super Meat Boy style.”
“The best thing I can say about this game is that it's short: I was just about able to finish the story campaign before boredom set in.”
“Bland graphics, functional but uninspired gameplay, and an excuse plot of a story add up to what is far from the worst thing I've played, but still not something I can recommend, even at this price.”
“The whole game is based on the 'trapped in TV land' trope, where you have to save your sister from the game world a la Super Meat Boy style - but with absolutely no real setup to the story, and the closest thing to platforming is jumping.”

The gameplay is characterized as functional yet uninspired, with many reviewers noting a lack of polish due to glitches and bugs. While some appreciate the simple twin-stick mechanics and find the gameplay balanced for a low-cost project, others criticize it for being bland and reminiscent of better titles without delivering the same quality. Overall, the gameplay is seen as passable but not particularly recommendable.
“Simple, chip, pure twin-stick gameplay.”
“Gameplay is funny, story very good.”
“Considering it is a low-cost project, it has great gameplay and is very well balanced.”
“For the price, the game is reasonable, but there is a host of glitches, bugs, and gameplay features that cause it to be just passable.”
“It's like a very low-budget Enter the Gungeon, with similar mechanics and a price to match.”
“This game is all mechanics, and does them relatively poorly; remixes an old, somewhat overused trope; and suffers from poorly implemented or downright buggy configuration settings.”

“A couple of positive points: 1) Weapons variety is good (each has its own feel) 2) There is a bit of replayability via an arcade mode if that's your thing.”
