The gameplay is highly enjoyable and filled with numerous references, contributing to a fun experience. However, some players feel that the flashlight should be a default item available for purchase at the start of each run, as it is essential for navigating dark areas, despite the challenge of finding a suitable alternative item to replace it.
- “Lots of references and really fun gameplay.”
- “A lesser gripe is that I feel like the flashlight should be a 'default' item that you have the ability to purchase from the start of the run, given that you would still need to collect pellets, then spend them on the item. Granted, I don't know what item could be conceptually similar and mechanically viable/interesting enough to take its place as something to go out of your way for, given that the flashlight is vital in dark areas.”
