The game's music features a single catchy track that players find memorable, often comparing it to the "Baby Shark" song due to its repetitive nature. While some appreciate its cool vibe, the lack of variety in the soundtrack may lead to it becoming monotonous over time.
- “Cool soundtrack.”
- “The music loops every time you start the game.”
- “What if the music started when you opened the game and looped over until you closed the game?”
- “There's only one song in the soundtrack, and I'm sure I've heard it before in some folk metal acoustic album.”

The gameplay is criticized for its lack of polish and broken mechanics, leading to a frustrating experience. Players note that the settings significantly impact performance, with low settings making the game unplayable and high settings causing lag. Overall, the game offers minimal variety and poor controls, resulting in a repetitive and unenjoyable experience.
- “If it was made with any effort and polish, I could see myself enjoying hours of this style of gameplay.”
- “The settings option will heavily affect the gameplay - putting them all on the lowest possible setting will make the game unplayable, since the ball will proceed at the speed of light; on the other hand, keeping them on the epic default options will most likely cause lots of lag, and it's quite strange being this game so minimalistic.”
- “All in all, this game offers very little about gameplay since the few levels are all the same, there are no checkpoints, and it's simply an endless avoid-the-obstacles game made with extremely poor controls and attention to the player's gaming experience.”
- “While that is certainly doable (many have), I just don't have the patience to deal with these broken mechanics.”

Players express a strong emotional response to the game's unforgiving mechanics, where any interaction leads to instant death without the possibility of respawn. This creates a heightened sense of tension and fear, as players navigate the environment with extreme caution.
