    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics have been widely criticized for their outdated retro pixel art style, reminiscent of 90s games, which many players find unappealing and lacking in modern visual fidelity. Additionally, the absence of resolution options and graphics tweaks further detracts from the overall experience, contributing to frustrations with controls.

    • “A choice was made to use obsolete, decades-old retro pixel art as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics.”
    • “There's no option to change the resolution and no useful graphics tweaks.”
    • “Graphically speaking, it looks like a game from the 90s.”
  • music
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game has been noted for its relaxing qualities, with some users finding it reminiscent of classic 8-bit NES games, though there are concerns about originality, as it appears to borrow heavily from titles like Battletoads.

    • “I relaxed for 5 minutes listening to this music, long enough to realize that I would be okay.”
    • “I do have a sneaking suspicion that the background music is originally from an 8-bit NES game from back in the day.”
    • “Also, the music in this game is literally stolen from Battletoads.”
  • gameplay
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is characterized by its platforming mechanics, which include arithmetic elements, though some users question the originality of these features. While the controls are generally acceptable, there is a desire for improved support, such as controller compatibility. Additionally, the game includes varied mechanics, like managing multiple characters, but their implementation appears inconsistent.

    • “The issues I have aren't with the gameplay, the controls (although I hope the dev adds controller support at some point), or anything like that.”
    • “The only notable thing about this platformer ripoff is that it features some arithmetic as part of the gameplay, but I wouldn't be surprised if the developer stole that from someone else, too.”
    • “Mechanics like having to divide or control multiple characters came and went.”
  • story
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story emphasizes resilience and the unpredictability of life, highlighting the importance of perseverance in the face of adversity. While it lacks a traditional narrative structure, the introduction is noted as particularly engaging and well-executed.

    • “The moral of the story is that you never know what life has in store for you. If I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today.”
    • “There are, of course, no storylines, but the intro of the game is brilliant.”
