- “Excellent platformer, great atmosphere - although it's fairly difficult!”
- “The sounds are neither cohesive nor memorable; the lack of music might be excusable if the ambient sounds would flesh out the world, but again, this important aspect fails to convey the atmosphere one might expect from a gigantic spaceship.”
