  • gameplay15 mentions

    The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with some players enjoying its nostalgic platforming mechanics reminiscent of classic games, while others criticize it for being slow and clunky. Many appreciate the vibrant graphics and straightforward mechanics, likening it to a 2D pinball experience or a Sonic-inspired adventure, though some find it lacking in excitement and fun.

    • “It's like a revitalized platformer with amazing graphics and gameplay!”
    • “The game may be made in the new age of tech, but it shares a lot of the mechanics that made older games so enjoyable. We have a beautiful game to look at; for a mere platformer, this game's look and feel is very decently done. The art and style were created and shaped very nicely, thus bringing us this beautiful game to look at.”
    • “Each level seems to test a different aspect of the 2.5D gameplay.”
    • “Gameplay-wise, it feels kind of like playing two-dimensional pinball from the side, rather than top-down, and it is just not fun.”
    • “Really slow gameplay and ridiculously long loading times.”
    • “It looks awful and the mechanics are clunky.”
  • story13 mentions

    The story has been widely criticized for being vague and poorly executed, with many players expressing confusion about the plot and its progression. The narrative is described as minimal, featuring a slow-paced sequence that fails to engage, leading to frustration among users. While some acknowledge decent voice acting, the overall consensus is that the story lacks depth and coherence, detracting significantly from the gaming experience.

    • “The story seemed too vague and I didn’t have much of an idea what was going on.”
    • “So-called story mode just shows a girl slowly walking up a barren rock in the middle of an ocean, for what feels like 10 minutes.”
    • “I'm constantly confused playing this; I can't seem to grasp any story really.”
  • music9 mentions

    The music in the game receives mixed reviews, with some players finding it good but unremarkable, while others describe it as terrible and overwhelming due to the lack of an audio slider. However, a few users highlight the soundtrack as exceptional and immersive, contributing positively to the overall experience. Overall, the music seems to be a polarizing aspect, with opinions ranging from praise to criticism.

    • “The sound and music scapes really are exceptional, and immerse you into the expansive landscapes.”
    • “The music is very relaxing and the gameplay is fairly straightforward.”
    • “Awesome graphics and music.”
    • “It also takes ages to load the game and there is no audio slider, which is something every game should have because this one blasts its terrible soundtrack into your ears and you can't turn it down.”
    • “Terrible music, no explanation of what to do (gather shiny things and go to the teleporter), and some of the worst controls and movement I've encountered in a platformer.”
    • “And as for the soundtrack, nothing special either.”
  • stability2 mentions

    Users report significant stability issues, with frequent freezes during launch and various bugs affecting gameplay.

    • “There is a certain amount needed to pass through each level's checkpoints, and collecting these is very tedious and boring.”
  • humor2 mentions

    The humor in the game is largely derived from the exaggerated animations, particularly the character's overly fast running and comically poor movement mechanics, which some players find amusing. The simplistic and awkward design of characters, like Luna resembling a stick figure in cutscenes, adds to the overall comedic effect.

    • “She runs just too fast; the animations for her are downright hilarious, and running into the slightest slope causes her to stop almost entirely.”
    • “The animation on Luna is just hilariously bad; in the cutscenes, she is basically a stick figure.”
  • optimization1 mentions

    Users report that the game's optimization is inconsistent, leading to unusual performance issues.
