The gameplay is criticized for being frustratingly difficult due to noticeable lag and a lack of foundational elements like backstory or tutorials, which hampers player learning. Reviewers express a desire for additional features such as leaderboards and timers to enhance replayability and engagement, indicating that the current mechanics alone are insufficient to sustain interest.
- “The game relies entirely on the mechanics to carry it, allowing players to jump right into the action without any backstory or cut-scenes.”
- “Build-up is necessary for players to learn the mechanics, and the game could benefit from a more structured introduction.”
- “We need leaderboards (friends/global), a timer, and mechanics that enhance the gameplay loop, providing reasons to replay levels and discover better strategies.”
- “This makes the gameplay overall terrible; there are sudden noticeable issues or lag when I'm trying to fluently jump through the course. This makes it extremely frustrating and arbitrarily difficult.”
- “There's zero backstory, cut-scenes, or dialogue involved; you sort of just start playing, and the game relies entirely on the mechanics to carry it.”
- “Build-up is necessary for people to learn the mechanics, and that's just not here.”

The latest update has addressed significant performance issues, leading to improved gameplay, though some users still find the game challenging. However, the lack of optimization options, such as resolution adjustments or graphical settings, limits players' ability to enhance performance further. Overall, while recent fixes are appreciated, the absence of customization options remains a drawback.
- “To add to the above, there's no settings at all; the menus are plain. You go into the game or mute, and that's it. All you get is no way to change resolution or downgrade some things, maybe turn off the exterior lights of the map to try to improve performance.”
- “The game is still challenging and a bit too difficult with no build-up, but hopefully, it's fixed given some time.”

The graphics in the game are described as adequate, effectively serving their purpose without being particularly impressive. However, the lack of customization options for audio and graphics settings is noted as a drawback. Overall, while the visuals are functional, they do not stand out significantly.
- “This game has a lot of potential, in my opinion, but currently, it's a parkour/speedrunning platforming game with no timer or leaderboards. There are no audio or graphics settings, just a mute button.”
