Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be slow and tedious, as it requires careful navigation without hitting obstacles to qualify for the leaderboard, which contradicts the fast-paced nature of speedrunning. The necessity to memorize gate colors and stage layouts adds to the frustration, making the overall experience feel laborious.
“The gameplay is just really slow and tedious in general, and the fact that you need to not hit anything in order to register on the leaderboard almost completely contradicts the concept of a speedrun leaderboard by forcing you to play even safer.”
“Manually flying around the stage trying to memorize the different gate colors and where everything is located is just tedious and annoying.”
