The gameplay has been described as "rusty" and repetitive, with mechanics that can feel frustrating and unclear, particularly regarding timing. While there is potential for improvement, many players feel that the current execution detracts from the overall experience.
“But if the developer focuses on the gameplay more, this game would have much potential to create a very successful game.”
“You can put some skill into this, but gameplay is pretty rusty.”
“However, the gameplay is a bit 'rusty' and a bit repetitive.”
“I like this game so much, but I'm going to refund it because the mechanics are just so frustrating. I don't like that you need to guess the timing of the rectangles out of nowhere; sometimes it ends up being too fast. Please make it clearer when I need to flick my cursor, thanks.”

The game's music selection is limited, and players find it frustrating, especially since adding custom music is not an option. While the level creator allows for user-generated content, the overall experience is marred by the lack of diverse musical choices.
“Adding music is impossible and playing the game itself is excruciating.”
