The key to this not becoming frustrating is decent button mapping on the controller.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
I dont think having a shrinking circle and asking the player to get a big combo is good gameplay, it's very restricting and forces the player to stick to a very small circle and plays against the insanely tight combo multiplier that demands you to constantly do tricks to sustain that combo (the multiplier runs out mid-air too so you have to be smart about it), call it skill issue but its not exactly fun to be already at half of the gold point threshold with your previous combo, and then having to catch up with another combo thats equally as big with the allowed area reduced significantly, so you have to awkwardly stick to an even smaller area or a cheesy spot because this parkour system isnt made with sudden and precise turning implemented (your character carries some sort of momentum so you cant exactly jolt them the other direction asap without breaking flow), I think it can be improved in these ways:

All this being said the multiplayer tag and flag games are super fun.

They've had over a year now to fix issues like key binds, level design, and graphics.

Also, at the time of writing this review, you can't rebind the controls. (at least not with any in-game settings) In fairness, the game is recommended to be played on controller, but it's very much playable on M&KB and would be even more so if you could customize your controls.

Players who bring up Steam Deck mostly praise it.
So the presentation as well as performance go hand in hand because I really marvel at how good this game looks on weather on my high end PC or my steam deck and you always find nooks and crannies that are cool to fun and of course wall run on.
