The graphics have been widely criticized for their simplistic and outdated design, resembling retro pixel art that lacks depth and quality. Many reviewers noted that the visuals feel lazy and unrefined, often comparing them to something hastily created in basic software like MS Paint. Despite options to adjust resolution, the overall graphical experience remains unimpressive and fails to enhance the game's aesthetic.

“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.”
“I appreciate the simplicity of the design, but the graphics and textures look and feel like something slapped together in MS Paint.”

The game's stability is criticized for being buggy and incomplete, making it hard to recommend despite its low price point.
“Although it's difficult in good conscience to recommend such a bare-bones, buggy, incomplete mess of a title, it's a hard product to fault for $0.99 (or in my case, $0.36).”
