The gameplay has been criticized for its poorly executed chase mechanic, which has remained unaddressed for three years, leading to a lack of polish and depth. However, some users find the core gameplay loop interesting, especially considering the game's limited budget. Overall, there is a call for quality of life improvements to enhance the experience.
- “It could do with more polish, quality of life improvements, and depth, but it's an interesting gameplay loop for what looks like a very tight budget.”
- “The poorly made chase mechanic alone is why I'm putting this as not recommended, and the fact that it hasn't been fixed in 3 years is a little concerning.”
