The graphics of the game rely on outdated retro pixel art, which fails to meet modern standards. While players can adjust the resolution, it merely scales the simplistic 2D assets without enhancing the overall visual quality, leaving the graphics feeling lackluster and unrefined.
“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.”
“Without any other substantial graphics tweaks, it's not possible for gamers to improve the lackluster 2D visuals.”
