Technical roughness or instability comes up often enough to check.

Pacing

It is better understood as a compact experience than a long hobby game.

Steam review snapshots

It's a fairly short game, taking about an hour.

I played this on Linux and the game ran fine, it might work with the Steam Deck if you're able to map…

i love both octodad games, this one is fun but keeps crashing
