Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
With around 40 different "characters" which are really alternate skins and different rockets to blast off again in some of my greatest enjoyment was from watching the level finishing animations.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
The levels are tiny, the obstacles are relatively generic, but the wonderful aesthetic and sky-high replayability score lead toward this game having a lot of potential depending on your personal tastes.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
Cosmic Leap's sound design and music added a lot to my enjoyment of the game, embodying electronic / upbeat background music with retro / 8-bit style sound effects, from the rumbling engine of your spaceship to the oft-heard jumping sound effect and the crumbly, lo-fi sound when you meet your demise.
