    • “I love the pixel art more than the upscaled art but otherwise 10/10 gameplay.”
    • “Even with that, though, it's deeply playful and engaging, and the mechanics lend themselves to a surprising amount of planning and depth of decisions in the moment.”
    • “I thought it was the original game, but I see that neither the gameplay nor the unlockable images are the same.”

    The graphics offer a nostalgic pixel art style reminiscent of Snow Bros, with the added option to switch to a cleaner, upscaled version for fullscreen play. While the upscaled graphics are less pixelated and sharper, some users find them too polished compared to the original retro look. Overall, the flexibility to choose between classic and enhanced visuals is appreciated.

    • “It's nice to have options like upscaling or keeping the original art style of the game and playing it fullscreen.”
    • “You can play using the regular pixel graphics or a cleaner looking 'upscaled' graphics which look the same, just less pixelated and more refined.”
    • “Graphics are similar to Snow Bros.”
    • “You can play using the regular pixel graphics or a more clean looking 'upscaled' graphics which look the same, just not as pixelated, more clean looking but too much so for my taste.”
