The game is frequently described as "buggy" and "sloppy," with numerous glitches affecting gameplay, particularly in the map editor and lobby settings.

Despite these issues, many players still find the game enjoyable, especially when playing with friends.

- “There are some downsides though, the main one being that the menus are incredibly buggy. Every time we swap maps, I have to relaunch the entire game. I also do not like that as soon as I create a lobby, a countdown timer starts, which is kind of annoying when I am trying to send invites out to 8 other people and try to get them in before the initial timer counts down.”
