70 of 241 sampled reviews raised it
While the overall story isn’t all that great and more or less forgettable (evil wants to take down humanity and the robots, yadda-yadda), the distinctive aesthetics coupled with the fun movement and action-based gameplay make for a very decent, maybe even the best metroidvania of the year.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
63 of 241 sampled reviews raised it
It plays well into the combat of the game and of course the majority of the boss fights.
Graphics

32 of 241 sampled reviews raised it
All of the actions feel good and everything that moves is running through a downscaler shader to fit the pixel art style with an interesting physics feel.
