The graphics of the game rely on outdated retro pixel art, which lacks depth and quality despite options to adjust resolution. Players find that scaling the simplistic 2D assets does not enhance the overall visual experience, resulting in a disjointed appearance with inconsistent resolutions. Overall, the graphics are considered lackluster and offer little room for improvement.
“A choice was made to use obsolete, decades-old retro pixel art as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics.”
“While there are options to change the resolution for the game, all this does is scale up the simplistic 2D art assets used to make the game, which makes little or no difference to the graphics quality.”
“The graphics look like they've been put together from several different sources and used at different resolutions.”

The game's music has received mixed feedback; while some players appreciate the surprisingly good quality of the soundtrack, others are frustrated by the lack of proper audio controls, making it difficult to turn off the background music.
“It's a simple but fun game with surprisingly good music.”
“Nice music, though.”
“Bewilderingly, the game doesn't include proper audio controls, so you can reduce the volume slightly but not turn off the annoying background music. You'll need to alt+tab out and stop the music using the Windows sound mixer.”
“The soundtrack is repetitive and lacks variety, making it hard to stay engaged with the game for long periods.”
“The music feels out of place and doesn't match the game's atmosphere, which detracts from the overall experience.”

The gameplay is characterized as a simplistic lunar-lander hybrid, where players navigate a biplane through caves using a basic thrust system and limited aerodynamics. While the concept may be seen as novel, it is overshadowed by a lack of polish and overall production quality, leading to a perception of it as a minimal effort project.
“The gameplay is a unique blend of lunar-lander mechanics and biplane flying, offering a novel experience that challenges players to navigate through caves with precision.”
“The thrust system adds an interesting layer to the gameplay, requiring players to master both aerodynamics and careful maneuvering.”
“Despite its simple premise, the gameplay provides a refreshing twist that keeps players engaged and encourages exploration.”
“Taking this shovelware seriously (which nobody should), it's a simple lunar-lander hybrid game where you 'fly' a biplane through caves using a lunar-lander style thrust system plus some limited aerodynamics. I guess that's novel gameplay, but it's surrounded by what is otherwise complete, lazy 'minimum viable product' production value.”
“The gameplay feels incredibly repetitive and lacks any real depth or challenge. It quickly becomes a chore rather than an enjoyable experience.”
“The controls are clunky and unresponsive, making it frustrating to navigate through the levels. It detracts significantly from the overall enjoyment of the game.”
