The graphics received mixed reviews, with some users criticizing them as poor and lacking direction, while others found the aesthetics to be appealing and enjoyable. The frame rate cap of 60 fps was also noted as a limitation. Overall, the visual presentation seems to evoke a polarized response among players.
- “Aesthetically pleasing.”
- “The game has a charming aesthetic that I really enjoy.”

optimization

The game's optimization is notably poor, with significant performance drops in certain areas that can render it unplayable on various GPUs. Players also report choppy animations and unclear navigation indicators, leading to frustrating gameplay experiences, particularly when interacting with the environment.
- “Performance absolutely tanks in some sections, to unplayable levels depending on your GPU.”
- “You have to figure out from no actual indicator where to stand, where to jump, etc. Animation is not optimized - even for this style it's choppy (it's not my gaming rig). Everything is yellow, and there are collision physics, so if while running/jumping down the hall you bump your buddy, say goodbye to the world and start the loop again.”
