The game's graphics are widely praised for their charming, hand-drawn art style and colorful, dreamy visuals that enhance the overall aesthetic experience. Players appreciate the whimsical design and smooth animations, which contribute to the game's engaging atmosphere, although some note that the graphics, while appealing, may not be groundbreaking. Overall, the visuals effectively draw players into the dreamlike world, making it a highlight of the game.
- “Charming art style: the hand-drawn, whimsical art style is visually stunning and adds to the game's dreamlike atmosphere.”
- “The artwork in the original was lovely but this is a significant upgrade; the artwork is sharper, brighter, and looks smoother.”
- “Every level represents a dream and the vector-based, layered graphics really supplement this well.”
- “At the end of the day, it's got some highly simplistic graphics, cheesy and repetitive music, and short levels (with the exception of the Mars DLC, I would argue they're a tiny bit too short).”
- “Unfortunately, the art style can't save the game since it's not effective in the use of playing the game with a controller. Also, it's an unnecessarily extensive use to control different objects in-game that could have been solved more practically, like in Rayman Origins or Limbo.”
- “Very cute graphics and pretty simple to play, but not really a game I would play again and again.”
