    The graphics in the game receive mixed feedback, with some users noting issues like bad visuals and heavy special effects that can be hard on the eyes. However, others appreciate the immersive graphics and smooth animations, suggesting that while there is room for improvement, the overall aesthetic contributes positively to the gameplay experience.

    • “All in all, it runs red is a fun boss rush-like game with smooth controls, immersive graphics, a simple yet effective story, and satisfying powers.”
    • “Kinda fun but mostly annoying due to bad controls, bad graphics, and glitchy gameplay. Also, it's super short, only taking me thirty minutes the first time, so it's not really worth playing.”
    • “I like it, but we are far from being a finished game. The idea is great, but it needs work on the animations and maybe a bit on the graphics since the special effects look heavy on the eyes. Overall, I'd give it a 4 out of 5 stars for being a game that still looks like it's in development.”
