Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Not only that, but it got "lighting" option, which works like a "dark fog" - stuff that is far from you will appear darker.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
It's super fun, has a great style/aesthetic & overall feel, there's a ton of enemy variety, the soundtrack is funky, the palette & animations pop, level design is smart and diverse, weapon variety creates increasingly satisfying run & gun gameplay, and the game has aged gracefully (especially with the BStone source port).
