Gameplay is described as challenging yet fair, with a focus on climbing mechanics that can be difficult but rewarding. While some mechanics, like the flying sticks, are criticized as poorly designed, the overall experience is engaging and visually appealing, making it a worthwhile investment for players. The controls are generally consistent, allowing players to understand their failures, which is essential for a rage game.
- “Gameplay is challenging at times; hard but fair.”
- “Gameplay is an assault course of climbing; you can watch the videos to see. It's not easy (like some climbing games), so far I like it.”
- “With loneliness has the most enjoyable gameplay mechanics, and is 100% worth its price. Why isn't this game already flooding the VR scenes?”
- “The 'movement is not always easy' is also very misleading; it sounds like it's referring to the actual obstacles themselves, and not the actual mechanics.”
- “For you to have a rage game, you have to be clear that whatever killed the player was the player's fault, not the game's. You need consistent controls and mechanics so players understand why they died.”
- “You are a small, defenseless robot trying to escape a cold, emotionless, mechanical world that wants to see you dead at every corner.”
