Overall, users express significant dissatisfaction with the optimization of the software, citing frequent crashes, slow response times, and poor performance despite claims of multi-core support. Many reviewers feel that the current state of optimization is inadequate, leading to a frustrating user experience and questioning the value of the product given its price. There is hope for future improvements, but as it stands, the software is considered poorly optimized and buggy.
- “If he keeps up the support and optimization, this program will always be awesome!”
- “If it evolves into something a lot better with more editing options, better optimization, bug fixing, and expansions, then I can see that maybe this product could justify the €54.99 price tag.”
- “Poorly optimized (had 2 crashes and I had just purchased this software some 30 minutes ago).”
- “One of my biggest concerns is with optimization; it takes seconds after you see the changes you have made.”
- “First, the webpage says the software takes advantage of multiple core CPUs, but if that's true, it's badly optimized.”

Initially, the game experienced significant bugs, but stability improved over time, allowing users to create tracks more effectively. However, issues persist with certain tools, like the xpacker-tool, which can lead to project-breaking errors. Overall, while some users report minor to no lag or freezes now, others still find the software frustratingly unstable.
- “For me, the software is now stable, and I have minor to no freezes or lag issues like in previous versions.”
- “The xpacker-tool is also buggy and editing existing xpacks often resulted in breaking them, which also bricks the whole project if used in one.”
- “Had gotten better, but is still buggy as shit.”
- “I wish I would have saved my money and put the time into learning a proper program, not this buggy crap.”
