The gameplay has received overwhelmingly negative feedback, with users citing confusing controls, poor performance, and a lack of tutorials as major issues. Many find the gameplay unbearable and riddled with glitches, while others note that it is overly simplified and lacks depth. Overall, the experience is marred by technical problems and a frustrating user interface, leading to a consensus that the gameplay is subpar.
- “Here is the gameplay and I'm quite pleased with it now, so I'm changing this game to recommended status and a score of 6/10.”
- “Gameplay is simplified but not bad.”
- “Especially in collisions measuring, in the correlation of masses and vectors of oppositely directed forces... I am not talking about the diversity of the missions or the layouts, about general fun-out-of-the-gameplay.”
- “So many issues... confusing controls and the gameplay is completely unbearable.”
- “The gameplay is terrible.”
- “It performs terribly, it starts in a 1680x1009 window on my dual-monitor desktop and the UI remains scaled for that resolution (i.e. things are off screen if you change it to 1280x1204). The options menu barely deserves being called that, the gameplay is a joke, and the look and feel is immediately repelling. It performs poorly for what it renders, and it supports no input devices but the keyboard and the mouse to rotate the camera.”
