Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
been waiting for this game for a while and it's funny cause i was like damn returnal is such a good game i wish they had a closer third person shooter or over the shoulder type of bullet helll...and maybe a week later i saw this game was coming soon, eventually the demo dropped..it was dope for a team of 3 people and here we are at release. for $20, the game did not disappoint. it's a pretty short experience even if you go for the plat but i just finished up going for no hits on all the bosses because for a game like this it seemed like a fun challenge and i must say these guys did a great job. the game didn't crash once on me, i maybe had one or two minor bugs that resolved themselves quickly. the story unfolds well between towers, the puzzles are fun and intuitive and not overcomplicated, the graphics look good, and yeah a small team with a limited budget and time used unreal assets...doesn't mean you can't make a good game. the bosses were fantastic and fun aside from herolix?

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
In practice, however, these transformations are more situational than transformative, often tied to specific encounters or puzzles rather than freely integrated into moment-to-moment gameplay.

So game may need some better optimization.
