The gameplay is characterized by an innovative core mechanic of rotating cube levels to guide a ball to the exit, which is complemented by well-designed levels and a satisfying soundtrack. However, players have noted issues with unresponsive controls, a steep difficulty curve, and a repetitive gameplay loop that can detract from the overall experience. Despite these drawbacks, the game offers a deep and engaging puzzle experience with incremental mechanics that challenge players effectively.

- “Controls for gameplay are unresponsive and have a frustrating lag, especially the jump: if you're moving in one direction and want to jump in a different direction, you need to come to a full (or nearly full) stop before pressing the new direction and the jump button, otherwise you'll be sent off jumping the same direction you were originally moving, often leading you to fall off the stage and have to restart the level from the beginning.”
