The game suffers from significant optimization issues, resulting in lag and unplayable levels despite its minimal polygon count. Players have noted that the overall experience feels barebones, with simplistic puzzles that do not enhance gameplay.
- “Sadly, the game is way too laggy for what little polygons it has; it's really badly optimized. Some levels were borderline unplayable, and the puzzles aren't there yet. Most of them are just based on moving objects from one place to another or picking up objects. There were only 2 puzzles, and they were pretty easy. The aesthetic is fine; I liked the character sprites, but the 3D filter was a little annoying, and the whole thing looks pretty barebones.”
