The gameplay is characterized by its unique mechanics that blend shooting and movement, making it easy to learn yet challenging to master. Players appreciate the forgiving respawn system tied to gem collection, which encourages exploration and experimentation, while the level design showcases creativity and variety. Despite some occasional confusion with mechanics and a potential over-reliance on the revive feature, the overall experience is enjoyable and engaging, with a charming aesthetic and delightful character designs.
“The gameplay is unique and original, being easy to learn and hard to master.”
“The level design feels like the devs had a lot of fun getting mileage out of their mechanics, and puttering around on a broomstick is delightful.”
“Between the gameplay, level design, and art, you can tell a lot of effort was put into this game, and a fun experience awaits you if you give it a try.”
“Many platformers are mechanically sparse, and end up becoming repetitive or poorly ramping up the difficulty to make up for the lack of mechanics.”
“Besides the previously mentioned issues of limited health power-ups and occasionally hard-to-understand mechanics, another problem is it's easy to become dependent on the revive feature to complete a level.”
“While I don’t think the revive mechanic needed to be drastically different, maybe limiting revivals to 1 per level would’ve satisfactorily given the player a safety cushion while encouraging them to get better at the game and not waste their stars.”

Players highlight the game's strong replayability, particularly praising the New Game+ feature, which enhances the experience and encourages multiple playthroughs.
“I finished the main game and went into New Game+ long ago, and it's utterly awesome for this game to have giant potential for replayability being thoroughly used.”
“After completing the story, I found little incentive to replay the game. The lack of meaningful choices and consequences really diminishes its replay value.”
“While the game offers a New Game+ mode, it feels more like a chore than an exciting opportunity to experience the game again.”
