Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
The gameplay is simple and repetitive, and that is normally not a bad thing.
37 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
The graphics are charming and unique but certainly not revolutionary or even “good” for that matter even back in 2012 when the game was released.

Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
Bought on sale for 0,50€, after completing the tutorials i discovered that in order to play in co-op mode with someone else of the 6-7 players online i should buy another thing (locked feature i guess)...

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
+ The soundtrack is subtle and atmospheric.
7 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Monetization
Players who bring up Monetization mostly praise it.
Integrating new ships and maps at a steady pace (even through paid DLC) would keep the current player base active and help attract new consumers.
