Geometry Dash costs 4$ and has 21 levels with actual servers and lots of customization and more ways to play than this one by a significant amount.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
18 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I really want to recommend this game because as a side-scroller it's a very interesting title... soundtrack is awesome, levels are cool, and you can practise them which is something that many games like this one don't have.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
11 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The game isn't really playable without insanely tight controls and frame-by-frame accurate visuals.
