The game's graphics have been criticized for their subpar 2D visuals, likened to "MS Paint tier," suggesting a lack of modern graphical standards and a failure to embrace 3D graphics, which became prevalent in the mid-1990s.
- “The game features really lackluster 2D MS Paint-tier visuals. Does the developer not know 3D graphics became mainstream in the mid-1990s?”
- “The graphics are disappointing, resembling something from the early days of gaming rather than a modern title.”
- “The visual quality is subpar, making it hard to immerse myself in the game world.”

The game currently suffers from numerous glitches and bugs, significantly impacting stability, particularly in certain levels like level 47, which experiences severe frame lag. While some players may tolerate these issues, the overall experience is marred by technical problems that detract from the game's potential.
- “This game has a ton of bugs, and not just the insect type. Glitches abound; if you're a complete masochist like myself, you can definitely get through it. For instance, level 47 is so poorly optimized it frame lags like nobody's business. The save/load screen fights you by moving the cursor on its own.”
- “At the time of writing this, there are a lot of glitches, but other than that, the game is amazing.”
- “If the glitches were fixed and it wasn't so long for such a letdown, it could have been pretty decent/good. It reminded me a lot of Bird Gut, but with a way worse story and a ton of glitches.”

The save/load screen fights you by moving the cursor on its own.”
