Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
If there are any downsides to the game, it's that (A) all that great challenging gameplay doesn't really have a narrative to go with it, and (B) the developer seems sadly reluctant to fix the downloading issue mentioned above (or tell people how to circumvent it: I spent a good hour finding out that tip I put at the start).

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
It’s an extremely fun experience with great visuals and unique physics, and it’s usually very affordable during Steam sales.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The graphics are pixelly but more than detailed enough to convey the awesome action-scenes, and the soundtrack does an excellent job backing it all up.
24 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
One of the reasons for this feeling is that the characters are not sprites with all their animation frames pre-rendered.
18 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Performance
Players who bring up Performance mostly praise it.
The framerate does not go higher than 30 frames per second, and some slow-downs can be experienced even on a good machine.
9 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
Could be enjoyed with a gamepad, in that case it uses the 2nd lever to command the shooting direction.
