Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
48 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
While the narrative won’t blow anyone away, it serves its purpose well, tying the game’s levels and progression together in a satisfying loop of rescue and revenge.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
43 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
While 60fps is unideal, it's higher than on PS1 and the visuals in general look way better, if a bit generic.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
24 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The soundtrack is catchy and upbeat, maintaining the franchise's playful tone while giving each level its own musical identity.
Steam Deck
Players who bring up Steam Deck mostly praise it.
16 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Playing on Steamdeck with no problems at all, it just started right away, Steam states unsupported but i'm nearly 1.5hrs in with no issues.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
14 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The models for every character are well-made, level environments leave the player in awing admiration for the world around them, and the cutscenes--either for the story or boss sequences--are captivating to watch.
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
11 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Being able to use the controller stick AND keyboard at the exact same time to run and jump (instead of other games that program for one OR the other at a time, and you have to switch constantly which is no good for me).
