Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
You control a spaceship and the gameplay is a lot like a shoot 'em up combined with a survivor game.
34 of 143 sampled reviews raised it
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
Graphically and musically it reminds of great classics of the past like Tyrian (I swear that one of the BGM must be a tribute to that game's soundtrack), the pixel art is amazing, and even when there's tons of stuff on the screen (Gunfield is somewhat of a bullet hell in parts) it's always easy to understand what enemies, bullets, bonuses and helpful areas are.

Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
The controller support is solid for the most part (needs some work on the menus; the "Catalog" isn't fully navigable without a mouse yet) but there's also KB+M.
