The graphics of the game receive mixed feedback; while some players appreciate the visual quality and the ability to see bullets in motion, others feel that the overall textures and details are lacking, resulting in a flat appearance. Despite running well on high-end hardware, users report occasional frame rate drops and the absence of customizable graphics options, which detracts from the experience. Overall, the visuals are considered decent but could benefit from more detail and polish.
- “The graphics are great.”
- “Nice graphics - amazing how you can actually see the bullet fly.”
- “The nicest thing about it is that it has really nice competition stages, and I completed a few. It's good, but feels lacking somehow, like maybe it needs some more texture and graphics because everything just becomes a very basic blur. All weapons have zero scratches, dings, etc. All in all, it feels flat and basic.”
- “On my RTX 3080, I was getting mostly 90 frames per second, but I did experience frame rate drops sporadically, which really shouldn't happen given the quality of the graphics.”
- “There are no graphics options either.”

The game offers high replayability, particularly for fans of action and practical shooting, as players are motivated to repeatedly run stages to improve their times and achieve penalty-free runs. This obsessive nature of refining performance encourages players to engage with the content extensively.
- “If you're into any sort of action/practical shooting, replayability is obviously very high; it's easy to end up running a stage over and over trying to shave that .5 seconds off.”
- “If you're into any sort of action/practical shooting, replayability is obviously very high; it's easy to end up running a stage over and over trying to shave that .5 second off.”
