Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
That's fine... and if that's your kind of game, more power to you... but it isn't nearly as enticing or satisfying as Super Hexagon (and yes, Velocibox's gameplay goes back to far earlier referents on the PC (even the old Star Wars vector arcade game), but I can't remember the 2 or 3 'tunnel' games it references).

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Everything is executed perfectly, the music and sound effects are fitting and don’t get repetitive, the graphics are great: you always feel like your going stupidly fast and everything is clearly defined, the controls are precise: every time you 'die' its your fault.
