Vibrant retro-style visuals, a suitable soundtrack, and near endless replayability due to its many playable characters and random enemy placement.

27 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It's got pixel graphics, tight control, decent music, and there's quite a bit of replay value.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
23 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Super cute pixel art and groovy arcade music makes this game super interesting, but then the simplicity mixed with difficulty made this game suprisingly addictive (similar to how everyone felt about angry birds).
Monetization
Players who bring up Monetization mostly praise it.

Your purchase on Steam gives you the "Red Gem" DLC from mobile for free, and there are no microtransactions after that.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
12 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The pixel art is great, the soundtrack is awesome, and I was happy to throw $5 toward a mobile dev that actually knows how to port a game to PC.
