Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
This little game can be played only with a friend, as it's coop only, and trust me, it's a challenge and a lot fun to play.
95 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
This game's easy, minimalistic and purely co-operative, it doesn't present us a backstory or something complex but rather a funny gameplay combining action and platformer elements.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
The music is overall nice as I was saying before - effects included - and the cubic graphics, although quite minimalistic, offer many different characters and variety in shapes and colors - in my view it gets a little bit too boring in this compartment since everything is too based con cubes seen in other games that I really dislike, but I don't think that this could be a reason to downvote the title - you've got to take this as an indie game and not a super new one :)

Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
Runs on unity and looks pretty much cartoonish with a childish aspect and square characters.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
Besides the badass banjo menu music it doesn't have any memorable soundtrack besides a couple of sections and the "success" map.
