The graphics of the game are generally described as decent retro pixel art, appealing to fans of the style, but they lack variety and depth, leading to a repetitive visual experience.

- “Besides the bad quality of this retro sprite graphic sidescrolling platformer, the dev is trolling the achievement community with unreasonable changes.”
- “All the levels look quite the same, the graphics are the same, and the mechanics too; they're linear and require you to jump here and there and fall from the cliffs due to the poor response, so that you'll get on again another platform and eventually finish the level and move on to a level looking the same as the one you had just finished.”
