The gameplay features a ledge dropping mechanic that is poorly explained, leading to frequent and frustrating deaths due to player confusion. While the mechanic has a learning curve similar to other challenging games, its unclear instructions cause it to feel inconsistent and unintuitive until fully mastered.
- “The ledge dropping mechanic is poorly explained.”
- “I get that there's a learning curve, the climbable walls in I Wanna Be The Guy have a learning curve too, but the way the game explains it leads to a lot of unnecessary and cheap deaths from the player simply not understanding the mechanic.”
- “The intended effect is that for a moment you are holding down and left/right, but in reality this causes a lot of running and walking off ledges, and the mechanic feels like it 'just works when it wants to.'”

The story incorporates revisiting levels despite the boss being dead, which some users attribute to either a pursuit of realism or technical limitations in balancing bosses for later gameplay with enhanced abilities.
