Gameplay is described as a mixed experience; while some players find the merging of genres and the natural flow of the gameplay loop engaging, others feel it becomes repetitive and boring after a short period, leading to a sense of overpayment for the experience.
“These genres also merge surprisingly seamlessly with each other, with the gameplay loop of making a stroke and then guiding your ball by fighting through enemies feeling natural.”
“I got this for $1, got about an hour of gameplay before I got bored, and I honestly overpaid.”
“The gameplay loop of making a stroke and then getting your ball by fighting through enemies just feels unnatural.”
