The graphics of the game have been widely criticized for their low quality, described as amateurish and reminiscent of beginner-level artwork. Reviewers note a lack of professional assets, which detracts significantly from the overall visual experience, and the absence of resolution options or graphics tweaks further compounds the issue.
“The artwork here is terrible; it's a hodge-podge of amateurish 'my first Wacom tablet' style drawings used instead of professional-looking game assets.”
“It's unclear if this is due to a lack of budget to hire someone who can create graphical assets properly, or a lack of talent. Regardless, the overall visual quality of the game is extremely low, enough on its own to deter gamers.”
“There's no option to change the resolution and no useful graphics tweaks.”

The monetization strategy of the game has been heavily criticized, with users labeling it as a cash grab and questioning the developer's sincerity in creating a quality product. Many feel that the game lacks genuine effort and is more akin to shovelware than a thoughtfully designed experience.
“It's pure garbage, and I question the sincerity of the developer dumping this on Steam. I'm not convinced this is a genuinely made game and it seems more of a shovelware cash grab.”
