Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Some other stuff happens, but the general gameplay loop is that you will be able to return to any stage you've already played as often as you want: exploring to your heart's content and finding power ups and NPCs to rescue... among other things.

Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
It doesn’t get in the way of a fun coop experience while also having enough to invest yourselves into what’s happening.
43 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The only thing I wish there was, is an option to disable voice acting.
30 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Considering how GG plays like the NES Castlevania games, I don't know why they didn't use an art style more representative of that.

Steam Deck
Players who bring up Steam Deck mostly praise it.
The screenshots on the store page look a bit washed out, but in-person on a Steam Deck the game is gorgeous and of course runs at 60fps with only 3TDP, so you'll have around 5 hours of battery life on a full charge.
