20 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe game's graphics feature a simplistic yet charming art style, reminiscent of titles like *Super Meat Boy*, utilizing a limited color palette effectively. While many players appreciate the aesthetic and clever design elements, some have reported significant performance issues, particularly on lower-end hardware, which detracts from the overall experience. The visuals are generally well-received, complemented by a fitting soundtrack, but optimization concerns have been a common point of criticism.
“Amazing art style, simple yet fun levels, and good music.”
“It's a pretty good precision game with cool art style, levels, and a little extra challenge to unlock the last level ;)”
“Truffle is an absolutely amazing, frustrating, precise, and rage-inducing game with a nice art style to go with it.”
“From a graphics point of view, the game reminds me of 'Super Meat Boy' - it is just as simplistic, but here it only has two colors (black and yellow).”
“It's a cute game (good background music too), but it's horrendous when it comes to even running on my potato laptop, which surprised me since I can run some decent stuff with higher frames (might be tied to my potato CPU with this not being graphically intensive).”
“I try not to complain about optimization too much, but there's just no excuse for a game with pixel graphics to run at 2 fps on, like, anything.”
