Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Proto Raider is a minimalist yet remarkably inventive puzzle-platformer that captures the spirit of classic design through its use of ASCII-inspired visuals and one-button simplicity.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The chiptune soundtrack used during the game is pretty nice, a bit repetitive, but nice; looking at the local files of the game, these aren't original music that was made for the game, there are from a music composer named Vibe/CRC, who released the album "Essential Chiptunes" on 2008.
