The graphics are characterized by a simple yet stylish aesthetic, featuring contrasting colors and effective animations that enhance the gameplay experience. The unique use of "blood" pixels as point indicators adds a creative flair, while the overall art style is accessible enough to run on lower-end VR systems.
“Contrasting colors, spot-on animation, great special effects, etc. I have to point out that the 'blood' pixels of this game become the point indicator, which has so much style in that one decision that the rest of the game would be overshadowed if not for the entire premise and art style lining up.”
“Nice artwork.”
“Such a simple art style yet such fun gameplay!”
“Very simple graphics, so it might run on a low-end VR rig.”
