Pontypants' first game is a good one, it's 'momentum' based combat is extraordinary and very creative, only problem about it is that playing with a mouse is a pain so if you get P-a-B then listen to the message on start-up; this game is best with a gamepad.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
14 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
For the game itself, the art style and music are charming and fit the game pretty well.
