The gameplay has been criticized for its frustratingly poor controls and mechanics, which detract from the overall experience. While the tutorial provides some guidance, players find that the combination of mechanics in the first level leads to a lack of enjoyment due to the game's harsh difficulty and unresponsive controls.
“If it was just hard with good mechanics, it'd be kinda enjoyable.”
“So I got the tutorial after 7 minutes and the controls were okay, but after you play the first level you have to combine the mechanics and then you realize that the controls are so bad that you don't want to play it.”
“The mechanics and overall feel of the game is just off.”
“Unless this is supposed to be like Alt+F4, then you need to clarify this BS of a mechanic.”
“This game is hard with absurdly cruel and frustrating controls and mechanics.”
“I got the tutorial after 7 minutes, and the controls were okay, but after playing the first level, you have to combine the mechanics and then realize that the controls are so bad that you don't want to play it.”

The graphics are characterized by low-quality, low-poly 3D visuals with simplistic designs and sharp edges, which may deter some players. However, there are contrasting opinions, with some praising the graphics as stunning, suggesting a blend of styles reminiscent of other games like "Ghostrunner" and "Altf4."
“The graphics are stunning.”
“This features fairly low quality low-poly 3D visuals, which will deter a lot of gamers, understandably.”
“It's a mix of Ghostrunner movement and Altf4 graphics.”
