The gameplay of the game has received mixed reviews, with some players praising its fun movement mechanics, such as wall-running and sliding, which contribute to an engaging experience. However, many also noted that the gameplay can become repetitive and lacks variety, with limited weapon types and room layouts. Overall, while the core mechanics are enjoyable and addictive, there is a consensus that the game could benefit from more content and refinement to enhance the overall experience.
“This game is peak gameplay, for real.”
“Amazing gameplay with a unique feel.”
“The gameplay is very fast-paced, with rapid sliding for speed and momentum, although air control is a bit lacking in my opinion; maybe a double jump would help.”
“It's a funky little concept, and I had hope this would be a good time-waster for me, but sadly I personally found the gameplay to be a little too repetitive and not quite up my alley.”
“Title is misleading; gameplay and shooting mechanics are no different beyond just the basic weapon classes that are found in other FPS games.”
“The gameplay design is very clever: your weapon will be downgraded every time you move to a new level, thus making it meaningful to find rare weapons again.”

The music in the game receives mixed reviews, with some players praising its upbeat and engaging nature, often describing it as "banging" or "awesome," while others find it generic or forgettable. Many note that the soundtrack draws inspiration from various genres, including techno and old-school rave, but some feel it lacks variety and depth. Overall, while the music enhances the gameplay experience for many, it does not consistently meet the high expectations set by other iconic soundtracks in the genre.
“The soundtrack absolutely slaps, the gameplay is fast-paced and well... very very fun and unique.”
“Awesome movement, fun guns, great music, what else do you need?”
“My god what a game this is! The music that plays in the background is so relaxing and a bit of hip-hop trance; it just makes you keep playing.”
“Music is also corny and may as well not be included.”
“The soundtrack tries to be a techno EDM thing but it just sucks.”
“Only downside is an imo boring soundtrack, but just turn the music to 0 and put in a random instrumental metal playlist on YouTube and you definitely have way more fun with some pumping guitar riffs while killing thousands of robots.”

The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some players appreciating the simple yet charming art style, while others criticize the visuals as mediocre or cluttered, making it difficult to spot enemies amidst the chaos. Although the game can run well on low-end PCs, many feel that the graphics could benefit from further refinement to enhance the overall experience. Overall, while not a graphical powerhouse, the visuals are deemed adequate for the gameplay, with some players enjoying the retro aesthetic.
“Overall, fun game, huge variety of different guns, both funny, effective, and downright originally bizarre, cool graphics.”
“Beautifully made, love the gameplay loop; the graphics are simple yet charming.”
“It's such a stupid idea for a FPS that should not have worked, but this game did it with nice graphics, fun enemies, cool music, fast-paced gameplay, and a million funny guns. It's bloody fun, and bloody free, 11/10, great game!”
“The graphics are nothing too special, although the clutter of enemy remains can impair your vision.”
“But the graphics break so much it's hard to tell what's going on, and this will for sure cause an epileptic seizure.”
“The only things the game has going against it are the crummy graphics (although if you like retro games, you might consider them good) and the lack of key mapping.”

The consensus among users is that the game lacks a significant story, with many describing it as having "no story" or minimal narrative elements. While some players appreciate the gameplay experience without a plot, others suggest that adding a campaign or more varied content could enhance the overall experience. Overall, the focus remains on gameplay rather than storytelling, with many players finding enjoyment in the action rather than a narrative.
“The game is quite story-heavy, which is a risk for an FPS game, but it was made with the necessary writer's sensitivity to create stylistic homogeneity between story progression and gameplay mechanics.”
“Omfg, this game has better loot than Destiny, and a better story than Borderlands 3.”
“Like Borderlands without a story and characters.”
“There's no story or lore to keep you from the gameplay.”
“Now that the developer has a good vertical slice of gameplay, I'd recommend adding content like a campaign or some kind of story or at least some more varied levels.”

“It's such a stupid idea for an FPS that should not have worked, but this game did it with nice graphics, fun enemies, cool music, fast-paced gameplay, and a million funny guns. It's bloody fun and bloody free, 11/10, great game!”

Overall, the game is praised for its high replayability, driven by unique weapon combinations, fast-paced gameplay, and engaging mechanics that encourage score-chasing and casual play. However, some players note limitations in variety and balance, suggesting that the lack of diverse environments and objectives can diminish replay value over time. While many find the game endlessly enjoyable, others feel that additional content or updates could enhance its longevity.
“The premise is simple but the replayability is massive, great game to play when you just want to kill some time.”
“The game's soundtrack bops, the gameplay is insanely replayable and you can just turn your brain off and blow off some steam.”
“Essentially has infinite replayability due to its randomization of every weapon; there isn't a story or upgrade system which fits perfectly with what this game is.”
“Not much replayability after 10-15 hours, but with updates that could change.”
“A very good concept but the execution has a lot of problems, most notably the lack of balance with most weapons being way underpowered and overshadowed, the lack of personality in the actual gameplay from boring and bullet-spongy enemies, the lack of replay value with little actual roguelike elements because there are only 3 room types and 3 objectives with the most basic one and repetitive happens 90% of the time, and most important is the lack of actually unique guns because even if there are over 30 million combinations, 95% of them are still extremely boring with a lot of modifiers doing next to nothing and only a few that actually change up the weapon (spider queen being the only really unique one).”
“This alone really kills the replay value I think, as just every map feels the same in the end.”

The reviews indicate that grinding in the game is a significant and often tedious aspect, with many players feeling it requires an excessive time commitment, likening it to needing a "second life." While some appreciate the core gameplay and the fun of collecting unique weapons, the repetitive nature of grinding and the frustrating health system detract from the overall experience, leading to a sense of tedium.
“You'll need a second life for grinding.”
“The health and healing system is very frustrating and exceedingly tedious.”
“Often I find myself trying to lure enemies away from the health pickup so I can take a second to properly pick them up, which breaks the flow of gameplay and ends up being quite tedious, tedium being a theme for the health system in general.”

“The game is just poorly optimized.”

“With most of the completely free-to-play games (meaning games that do not have an in-built in-app purchase system) I've played, I believe it's free, get it and give it a try... doesn't cost you anything.”
“With most of the completely free-to-play games I've played, I believe it's free, get it and give it a try... doesn't cost you anything.”
“An FPS without microtransactions, hacking, and people spewing racial and homophobic slurs, it's a miracle.”

Overall, the game's stability is mixed; while some players report experiencing minimal glitches and a generally smooth experience, others have encountered significant issues with animations and HUD functionality. Despite these problems, many users still recommend the game, highlighting that major bugs are infrequent.
“Honestly, when I first got this game, I thought, oh great, this looks like a buggy mess.”
“The only major problems I have with this game are the animations (sometimes they can get really buggy and I'd really love if they were remade) and the maps.”
“The second glitch is the HUD glitches out every so often; the gun UI shows an 'out of order' sign and the health UI stops working and doesn't update when health pickups are picked up or when damage is taken.”
