❤ Gameplay Feel and Controls

Players praise the game's smooth 60fps engine and high-quality animations, which make the characters feel solid and impactful. The controls are highly configurable, allowing players to customize button layouts and sensitivity to their liking. Reviewers note the platform fighter mechanics, such as air dashing, shielding, and comboing, feel incredibly polished and satisfying to execute.

❤ Variety and Depth

While the initial roster may seem small, each of the 4 playable characters has a unique moveset and playstyle that offers a different challenge and expression for players. Combos and advanced techniques like movement options and attack cancelling provide a high skill ceiling for players to master. The addition of assists, which allow players to call in supporting characters, further expands the strategic depth and ways to approach matchups.

❤ Customization and Modding

The game's in-game "Fraytools" editor allows players to easily create their own custom characters, stages, modes, and more. Reviewers praise the accessibility and power of these tools, noting the possibilities for the community to expand the game are essentially limitless. Players highlight the ability to seamlessly use and play custom content online as a major strength.

❤ Online Performance

The game's use of rollback netcode aims to provide a smooth online experience. While some players report occasional issues with lag or stuttering, many reviewers note the online play is generally quite solid, especially when optimizing settings. The separation between competitive "quickplay" matchmaking and more casual lobby-based play has also been appreciated.
