Gameplay

If this all sounds good to you with gameplay + combat - well, you're in for a treat.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
62 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It plays lots of homage to 80's + 90's culture, runs well, plays well, looks cool artistically, has a fantastic soundtrack & delivers a really solid experience.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
62 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Co-op worked fine and only encountered one freezing bug which left my character frozen mid-air and the boss was stuck in a looping animation.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
42 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The PC version offers various resolutions, and offers very smooth 60 fps beautiful cell shaded animation and graphics.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
34 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
If you've played classic fighters such as Streets of Rage series, Final Fight (some moves are just plain unrealistic + combat is faster than old Double Dragon) and especially Double Dragon (since it's still a bit methodical with its combat) - you basically know what you're getting into.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
24 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The story is ridiculous in the best way possible (in the vein of all great action films from the '70s, '80s, and first half of the '90s), and the soundtrack is amazing (Jake Kaufman, take a bow) and very well-designed to suit the aesthetics of the stages and environments.
