To make it worse the textures are super blurry and there seems to be a lack of dynamic shadows.
7 of 71 sampled reviews raised it
Optimization

Not only because his stages have the longest load time and also not because his stages are the most poorly optimized ones.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The soundtrack, composed by Stemage, is a standout feature, with energetic tracks that synchronize with the rhythm-based gameplay and enhance the sense of speed and excitement.
