The graphics are praised for their effective aesthetic choices, creating tension and fear through pixelated visuals that obscure threats. The retro style reminiscent of early PlayStation games, combined with unsettling audio effects, enhances the overall atmosphere, making it well-suited for the horror genre, despite some imperfections.
- “Loved the early PlayStation retro graphics and the scary audio effects, especially towards the end.”
- “I think the aesthetic choice regarding the graphics was a great decision - if you can barely make out the pixels in the distance, it creates tension and even fear because you don't know if those pixels are a threat and you cannot identify them.”
- “Definitely not perfect, but the scares were well constructed and the visuals work well for the genre.”
