It's got an unusual but effective healing mechanic where you can heal yourself using "moons" that are found in the levels or by killing enemies.
Difficulty

A lot of care went into this game and it shows - the visuals are wonderful, the gameplay is solid, and so much thought has gone into the difficulty.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
27 of 105 sampled reviews raised it
Little Nemo reminds me a little bit of Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom with it's striking audio/visuals though it's also a bit too easy - like a modern 2D Kirby or mario game is.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
24 of 105 sampled reviews raised it
Art and music are outstanding, story is really charming, and the map is a lot of fun to explore.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
17 of 105 sampled reviews raised it
The game's sound effects also match its vibes and the music varies according to each domain, but overall still maintain the cutesy vibes from the game.
Accessibility
Players who bring up Accessibility mostly praise it.
4 of 105 sampled reviews raised it
The game is a retro style exploration focused collectathon with many modern accessibility features and quality of life stuff(such as autosaves :D).
