  • gameplay
    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is a mix of challenging and humorous elements, with players appreciating the fun mechanics and level design, despite some frustrations due to unpolished controls and occasional input issues. While the game is entertaining and offers a unique experience, particularly for those who enjoy its comedic style, some players caution that the gameplay can become frustrating, especially with the dash mechanic and minor optimization problems. Overall, it strikes a balance between being a hilarious action platformer and a challenging game, though it may not appeal to everyone.

    • “It's actually a hilarious game, with fun gameplay.”
    • “The gameplay is good, solid enough to be pretty challenging and fun to play, often sadistic; you basically have to break the game at some points, but it's all part of the totality of the experience, and personally, I love it.”
    • “This game is a hilarious action platformer and is genuinely really great; it's definitely one of the funniest games I've ever played but also has challenging and fun gameplay, though it's a bit unpolished and frustrating at times.”
    • “However, I warn you that if you're just in it for the gameplay and the humor isn't really something you'd be super into, then proceed with caution.”
    • “There's also a lot of framerate issues stemming from the lack of optimization, but it's mostly just during cutscenes and doesn't inhibit gameplay too much.”
    • “Like, it's funny right up until you die a lot because of extremely unpolished handling and basic mechanics, and then it swiftly becomes annoying, but the annoyance doesn't last long enough to make me entirely despise it.”
  • graphics
    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game are highly praised for their top-notch quality, featuring outstanding visual clarity and smooth, hand-drawn animations at 60 fps. The pixel art style reflects significant effort and creativity, contributing to a unique punk aesthetic that resonates well with players. However, some reviewers noted that while the visuals are impressive, issues with controls and level design detract from the overall experience.

    • “The graphics are top notch, every single stage has outstanding visual clarity and the sprites of even the most minor characters are animated in silky smooth, hand-drawn 60 fps.”
    • “Compared to other indie Steam platformers, the visuals and music are pretty damn good.”
    • “I really thought I would like what this game was going for, but when the jank extends from the aesthetics and into the controls and level design, it becomes a problem.”
    • “Still, I do like the aesthetics and general attitude and idea of the game; there are just many glaring issues in the actual execution.”
    • “The pixel art style certainly isn't an excuse to be lazy; there's clearly effort and experience behind the visuals in this game.”
  • optimization
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's optimization is criticized for causing significant stuttering and input drops, particularly due to excessive particle effects during gameplay, which can lead to frustrating deaths. While framerate issues are noted, they primarily occur during cutscenes and do not heavily impact overall gameplay.

    • “The excessive particles on-screen in response to every enemy or obstacle destroyed cause the game to heavily stutter and regularly drop inputs at critical moments; the stuttering is funny when it's happening during a cutscene, but incredibly annoying when it gets you killed for the fifteenth time.”
    • “There's also a lot of framerate issues stemming from the lack of optimization, but it's mostly just during cutscenes and doesn't inhibit gameplay too much.”
  • replayability
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Reviewers suggest that improving control options, such as allowing players to hold a button for actions instead of relying on double taps, could enhance the game's replayability by making it more user-friendly and enjoyable.

    • “The lack of diverse gameplay options really limits the replayability; once you've completed the game, there's little incentive to return.”
    • “After finishing the main story, I found there was nothing left to explore or do, which made replaying the game feel pointless.”
    • “The game feels repetitive after just a few hours, and I struggled to find reasons to play it again.”

    Players express a strong emotional connection to the game early on, indicating that the narrative and character development effectively engage them from the very beginning.
