The gameplay has received mixed to negative feedback, with players noting significant bugs and poorly implemented mechanics, particularly in shooting and aiming. The integration of math questions feels forced and disrupts the flow, while essential features like respawn and intuitive controls are lacking. Overall, the game is seen as a rough build that requires substantial refinement to enhance the player experience.
“I really like the idea they are going for, but they need to put more time into the shooting mechanics so that there is a fun reward for solving the algebra, not a simple roadblock that is easily overcome but still an annoyance.”
“The gameplay is a little wonky, especially the FPS aspect; no hip fire or reload is possible, the player has to aim to unlock these controls.”
“Although this game is really buggy and the shooting mechanics don't quite work.”
“The math questions feel rather tacked onto the game, with no real thought given to the pacing or what they add to the gameplay.”
“In terms of gameplay, because it is a very rough build, there are a lot of placeholders, wobbly camera movement, missing sound effects, etc.”
