“The graphics in Tug are a treat.”
“The presence of fog, various cloud types, sky colors, moon and sun, darkness, etc. make for an overall pleasing and immersive graphical experience that I'm sure you'll enjoy!”
“Gorgeous graphics and love the fresh feel in gameplay - looking forward to how this game progresses.”
“The world's worst 3D graphic design program since Minecraft.”
“Graphics are very old school and pretty crappy, to be honest.”
“I'm very disappointed this game looks great for its price, but you need to have DirectX 11, and just having it won't let you play; you need a PC graphics card that's capable of running it, which mine won't.”
