The gameplay has been criticized for its lack of innovation and challenge, with many reviewers noting that it feels repetitive and tedious, particularly due to the high number of enemies to defeat. While some appreciate the procedural generation of maps and the unique setting, the overall mechanics, such as weapon swapping, fail to engage players, leading to a perception of the gameplay as simplistic and unexciting.
- “It's obviously the future of gaming; the gameplay is innovative and the concept is well thought out.”
- “To add to the gameplay, the maps are procedurally generated, and you need to choose the right weapons to kill each kind of enemy.”
- “Aside from a speed boost, roll, and the aforementioned color-swapping of your shots, there is not much else present. Future levels may expand more on the initial idea, but I can't even be bothered to fly around doing the same thing 200 times in a row, at least not without more to the actual gameplay than aesthetic value, which is at least a unique setting/presentation.”
- “The gameplay itself really isn't fun for a few reasons.”
- “Gameplay is alright, until you realize how many enemies you have to kill in each level. If you play the game legitimately, it will take you hours clearing these guys out. It might not have been a problem had it been fun eliminating enemies, but it isn't.”
- “There is literally no difference in the gameplay or art.”

The story is minimal and primarily serves as a backdrop for repetitive gameplay, with players accepting missions that involve defeating a set number of enemies. While there are some dialogues and text-based narrative elements, the overall experience lacks depth, focusing instead on the mechanics of combat rather than a compelling storyline.
- “You accept missions, have a few dialogues, and then you have to accomplish the same thing in every level: kill 200 ships/enemies... that's it.”
- “To repeat the same task nearly 200 times - 'destroy 200/200 enemies' (matching the complementary colors of enemies to shoot them with and flying around in what looks like a mix between Tron and a biological system on a microscopic level...)”
- “The music fits the setting well and there is some of a story presented via text (not so much cutscenes).”

- “The game's unique presentation and aesthetic value create an engaging atmosphere.”
- “The game's graphics aren't the best.”
- “On with the bad... the graphics aren't great (at least they're not retro pixel).”
- “Aside from a speed boost, roll, and the aforementioned color-swapping of your shots, there is not much else present. Future levels may expand more on the initial idea, but I can't even be bothered to fly around doing the same thing 200 times in a row, at least not without more to the actual gameplay than aesthetic value.”

Players express mixed feelings about grinding, with some questioning whether the effort is worth the achievements, while others suggest that it requires significant time investment, likening it to needing a second life to complete.
- “You'll need a second life for grinding.”
- “Is it worth grinding for the achievements?”
optimization
1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
100%
The game's optimization has been criticized, with users noting that it feels unrefined and static, suggesting that the developers may have spent excessive time on level design rather than improving performance. The use of a potentially self-made game engine has also raised concerns about its efficiency.
- “I'm not sure what the purpose of the developer was in making this game. It feels like it was created the hard way. I believe the game engine is self-made, and more time was wasted making all those levels. The game itself is clueless, not optimized, and feels static.”
