Gameplay

47 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
These straightforward mechanics allow the level design to become the real challenge.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
31 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
As most run and gun/platformers with a lot of shooting, this game appeals to the artistic style graphics, but don't let this fool you.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
31 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Combined with a lively retro-inspired soundtrack, the presentation successfully captures the atmosphere of an absurd game that the Nerd himself might have discovered and angrily reviewed.
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
10 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The controls are great, the only complaint is that switching characters in boss battles can be hard on the controller since there are four characters and only two buttons to switch between them.
