The graphics of the game have been widely criticized for their outdated retro pixel art style, which fails to meet contemporary standards. Users note that despite options to change resolution, the simplistic 2D visuals remain unimpressive and lack any meaningful enhancements, resulting in a generally lackluster visual experience.
“A choice was made to use obsolete, decades-old retro pixel art as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics.”
“While there are options to change the resolution for the game, all this does is scale up the simplistic 2D art assets used to make the game, which makes little or no difference to the graphics quality.”
