Reviews
- The game features an impressive artistic style and beautiful visuals, complemented by a pleasant soundtrack.
- Gameplay is simple yet enjoyable, providing a relaxing experience reminiscent of classic snake games.
- The new control scheme works well with both mouse and controllers, enhancing the overall experience.
- The game is very short, with the main story mode taking under half an hour to complete, and additional modes do not add significant content.
- Achievements are broken and there are numerous bugs, which detracts from the overall enjoyment and value of the game.
- While aesthetically pleasing, the lack of variety in gameplay and challenges makes it feel more like a student project than a fully developed game.
