Kero Blaster (KB) has great reviews, and the gameplay shown in the trailers is the kind of run and gun, or at least trot and shot (tarry and bury?), experience I enjoy.

This is a shame, because I found the game at its most fun when switching between weapons on the fly to deal with different enemies.

It's hard for me to put into words, but I find the visuals to be endearing rather than looking unpolished or poorly done.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
26 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The music has the chip tunes sound to it from the NES era, comprised of sound effects that build together into catchy songs.
