Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
I tried changing the graphics settings from glorious all the way down to good but the fps didn’t change one bit.
15 of 50 sampled reviews raised it
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
I have downloaded the soundtrack and like it, it's very chill.
8 of 50 sampled reviews raised it
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
Controls for keyboard and for controller (xbox in my case) are fluid and responsive, if you're having trouble just to use sprint 24/7 and trust yourself, I've found running blindly and traveling upwards on platforms gets you through the game easily.
