Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
38 of 136 sampled reviews raised it
There's a pretty solid checkpoint system that's a nice modern quality of life improvement, contradicted by the fact that you can't quit a level without having to do it all again.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
27 of 136 sampled reviews raised it
It has pretty solid pixel art and an absolutely bangin' hybrid chiptune soundtrack, but this is contradicted by generally boring level design.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
17 of 136 sampled reviews raised it
Together, the graphics and music create a nostalgic yet polished atmosphere that enhances every stage and boss encounter.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
16 of 136 sampled reviews raised it
The combat and upgrade systems are pretty good, but this is contradicted by your character's ridiculously slow walking speed and controls that just plain don't respond sometimes and will cause tons of needless deaths.
