Co-op

You can go solo or team up with friends in co-op mode, which is always a recipe for chaos and endless laughter.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Tribute Games made a good choice collaborating with Paul Robertson (Scott Pilgrim) as the art style, along with the customization, really go a long way in making this particular game stand out among the crowd.

Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
Initial review was more mitigated but I was hoping to play it multiplayer online with me + 2 friends on another shared network

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The visual style, combined with the catchy chiptune soundtrack, creates an immersive retro experience.
6 of 136 sampled reviews raised it
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
P.S. look at taking perks that increase drops and rare drops early on it may also be good to look at the money perk as you may struggle with money in simular situations, especially if you want to craft a ton of weapons or go back to grind them out, or craft allot of vanities, oh yeah those are a thing... mainly used to decorate your tent which comes with you when you join someones game. i reccomend a controller for this game, connecting a ps4 or Xbone1 controller is easy now so try to figure it out.
