Performance
Players who bring up Performance mostly praise it.
The controls feel pretty good on point without lag, the movement felt precise.
8 of 85 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Not enough maps (I am sure you are working on this), the graphics can definitely be improved significantly, and it's definitely not optimized.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
The last 3 minutes of gameplay with the flickering ESP on all players seems pretty stupid too, I understand you are trying to get a winner by the end of the game - but I feel like an Out-of-POV arrow would be better than directly telling us where the last players are.
