Players feel that the gameplay could benefit from additional mechanics, such as the ability to stomp on enemies, and suggest that the web-grabbing feature needs refinement. Many users reference Super Mario World as a benchmark for control quality, indicating a desire for more polished and intuitive gameplay.
“It would be nice if the enemies could be stomped on or something similar, and the web-grabbing mechanic could use a bit of refining (the universal reference for controlling continues to be Super Mario World).”
