Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
While this does swiftly chaperone the player along their way, it hampers Akimbot’s potential replayability, as there are few alternate pathways to explore on future playthroughs.
103 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The voice acting is solid across the board, giving each character personality and charm, though I have to admit Shipset’s voice can be a little annoying at times.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
The graphics, which aim to strike a midpoint between cartoon and realism, are truly stunning; whether it’s a colourful beach, a war-torn battlefield, a large-scale space battle, or an off-kilter dreamscape, Evil Raptor’s artistic vision for these spaces is fully realised and cohesive.

Optimization
Players who bring up Optimization mostly praise it.
Visually the Games looks pretty good and the cinematics definitely feel professional level despite this being an indie game, The Bot Designs are pretty unique where there’s regular bots and drones and even the ancient stuff are still designed to look robotic, The Optimization is almost pretty good for being on the unreal engine where it’s mostly a consistent 60FPS across the board except there there are point where it can dip into the 30s especially a certain section of the game after the MC dies
