Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
The game also has a multiplayer mode which is a lot of fun, where you and a friend get to alternate hitting the ball on a level that is procedurally expanded.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
visuals are outstanding and it still runs great on my relatively modest PC with a core i5 7400 and rx 470 4gb

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Because of the passion with which the Devs, who reached out to me after I posted my review, and the Racket:NX community have shown, I continued playing and have 12 hours of gameplay in at this point.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
also it was very easy to put in my own music, i added some synthwave tracks and i think it fits great but the soundtrack in the game is already really nice

Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
Very simple idea, hit the ball at the targets, but while progressing through the campaign it becomes obvious there is a level of skill to be achieved, which I'm glad for because I was concerned the game might end up turning out to be too easy.

Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
The warning to keep the hand strap on is not a joke, it encourages hitting the ball as hard as possible, and i have slipped grip of the controller a few times so definitely recommended.
