The game is high quality: the art is charming, all the character designs are excellent, there are a wide variety of enemies and bosses with clever attacks, the soundtrack is nice, sound design is well-done, environments are immersive.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
The game offers some nice graphics and environments, although some ugly glitches here and there, it is pleasant all the same and has a really great aesthetic

Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
The intelligent and creative enemy design is definitely the star of the show here, which is why it's weird to see how incredibly boring the only three human characters are.

Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
i've seen some complaints about the controls, and while personally i think it's serviceable i can understand where people are coming from and the issues become more apparent when the game demands more of you in its hardest difficulty, precision becomes a pain and it can often feel like your deaths weren't very fair. alongside this i think it becomes pretty draining to play for long periods of time, i played on controller which seems like the better option of the two however it still became pretty uncomfortable to constantly be flicking the analog stick about to move and dart and weave, although this isn't a major issue as the game itself is really short and levels are bite size, and even the speedrun mode pauses its timer when you pause or are in the menu allowing you to give yourself time to rest which is appreciated
