I really want more of Star Apprentice, the gameplay was so fun and I really really enjoyed the characters, this is my little wink wink nudge nudge to the developers that if they came out with a full Star Apprentice game I would purchase it right away.

The dialogue is also written quite well, though like with the soundtrack, nothing in particular stands out above all else enough for me to keep thinking about it.

I really appreciate the wide range of difficulty settings so I could set the bullet hell sections of the game to a comfortable difficulty level.

The graphic design is excellent, even if the art style wasn't quite for me.
