Addictive gameplay, colorful characters, a heartwarming story, and a nostalgic charm throughout, with an attentive dev team that addressed most of my criticisms during my playthrough and the rest in the updates following it.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
35 of 145 sampled reviews raised it
I have to say I didn't expect much, and honestly I just thought this was going to be a short cheap indie game, but they created a great world and fun characters.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
12 of 145 sampled reviews raised it
Though I haven't discussed the music yet, the game's soundtrack is as varied as its characters and environment, and equally as valuable to the experience.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

While I didn't have a chance to directly experience the original, I would still dare to say that Alekon represents an improved version of it, not only through the adorable art style but also through the fact that the gameplay was slightly altered, in my opinion - for the better.
