Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
24 of 55 sampled reviews raised it
Fun game, really well polished and designed when it comes to the overall feel of the gameplay (perhaps apart from the soundtrack, it's great for what it has, but could be a bit more varied).
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
15 of 55 sampled reviews raised it
I feel like it has a lot of untapped potential because on an average playthrough (see my playtime, that's how long it took me to complete on "Normal" difficulty) you'll hardly scratch the surface of possible combinations of weapons/ships/upgrades you can use.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
14 of 55 sampled reviews raised it
If so, it will be because of the catchy retro soundtrack and my OCD.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
8 of 55 sampled reviews raised it
The music is great, the graphics are great, the responsiveness on the controls is great... this is a wonderful little game.
