Some of the visual effects are a bit rough (throwing up, asteroid fields), but overall the graphics and lighting are quite nice in their current state.

The music and sound design is great overall and really does a lot for the game.

8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Co-op (proper co-op, not the "print this and have someone read it to you") might make it better, especially on the lengthier missions.
