The graphics are weird, but enjoyable; the animating squares in the background and the trail effect behind the player are well done and add a lot of visual appeal, even if it is a bit busy. The gameplay is basic, but solid. However, the level design relies a bit too much on trial-and-error and &quot;leaps of faith&quot; in my opinion.

The major problems for me are the sounds (kinda irritating), and the excessive luck - trial and error component of the gameplay (this is a matter of personal taste, though, but usually players feel it is unfair to them if they don't have some way of avoiding failure because of luck or lack of knowledge of the level design or state).
