It's got decent graphics for it's age but would probably still play well on a potato.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
12 of 261 sampled reviews raised it
It also has an amazing soundtrack to boot, really gets you hyped up for some laser crustacean action.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
10 of 261 sampled reviews raised it
It also has local multiplayer, up to 4 players, and I think it’d make for a hilarious party game.
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
6 of 261 sampled reviews raised it
With a controller it's reasonably fun, and despite making very little sense the attacks quickly become intuitive.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
5 of 261 sampled reviews raised it
TLDR: pick this game up on a sale, read through the manual someone posted in the guide section, and have yourself a blast playing this strange game for a few hours alone or with friends in the multiplayer.
