The graphics of the game are described as "completely out of this world," showcasing impressive visual quality. However, players express frustration over the lack of essential settings, such as audio and graphics options, which detracts from the overall experience. The absence of a proper main menu for adjustments further complicates gameplay.
“It gives you the ability to change your screen resolution, graphics quality, which monitor you want to use, and the ability to see your keybinds.”
“Imagine asking $15 for a game, not bothering to put in any audio settings, no graphics settings, not even a full screen or windowed option, and also forcing the player to hard close the game just to exit because hitting esc does nothing!”
“It needs a main menu option to change controls, graphics, etc. just so you don't have to keep restarting the game.”
“Let's talk about the graphics, oh man they are completely out of this world.”
