The graphics of the game are highly praised for their unique vaporwave and PS1-era aesthetic, creating a visually stunning experience reminiscent of an interactive album cover. Players appreciate the retro-inspired low polygon designs, 2D sprites, and modern lighting effects, which contribute to the overall ambiance and fit well with the game's theme. However, those unfamiliar with the vaporwave subculture may not fully appreciate the visuals, as they are integral to the game's appeal.
- “Vaporwave aesthetics, a fun little old school FPS, and PS1 era graphics = a really fun time.”
- “Stunning visuals if you're into the style.”
- “If you don't know what I'm talking about, then you're probably thinking that the graphics suck, and maybe this game is not for you.”
- “The big part is obviously the visuals; it's like an interactive vaporwave album cover. The levels are generally low polygon, there are also lots of 2D sprites, and everything is put through a pixelation filter. Despite that move, all the shadows, light effects, and god rays are up to a pretty modern standard.”
- “This means the game's visuals have a retro-inspired vibe.”

The gameplay features a mix of relaxing ambiance and intense challenges, with well-designed levels reminiscent of vaporwave aesthetics. However, players have noted issues with broken combat mechanics and unfair enemy attacks, which can detract from the experience. While the gameplay offers some challenge, it lacks depth and variety, primarily revolving around basic shooting mechanics and occasional platforming.
- “The relaxing ambiance stands in a bit of contrast to the gameplay, which can become quite intense.”
- “Decently challenging but not pointlessly hard gameplay.”
- “Level design is great and it feels like traveling through different vaporwave albums in every stage, but the experience can be ruined by the broken combat mechanics and unfair enemies with their wall-clipping lasers that you can't really avoid. I don't think this is just a matter of needing to 'git gud' since I'm a big fan of classic Doom.”
- “The gameplay isn't all that interesting, to be honest. You have an infinite ammo laser gun, some direct damage chasing enemies, and different types of turrets. Besides looking out for them, you'll be doing some first-person platforming here and there.”
- “The relaxing ambient stands in a bit of contrast to the gameplay, which can become quite intense.”
