The passion in this game is obvious in every aspect, from the art style to the animation and gameplay, but the flaws may turn some people away.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
21 of 105 sampled reviews raised it
Enemies are VERY varied, and progression and difficulty has a nice curve before dropping you into the deep end to deal with half a dozen enemies at once.
Audio

Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
13 of 105 sampled reviews raised it
Though the story is weak, it has a well made combat system, online and arena modes, unlockable skills and characters, making me strongly recommend the acquisiton of this incredible game.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
13 of 105 sampled reviews raised it
There are a large amount of unlockables and online co-op for the Workshop (think Bloody Palace), along with three difficulties for the single player campaign.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
8 of 105 sampled reviews raised it
Unfortunately for me, after having completed the main game and enjoying ~parts~ of it, such as the funky character design and the combo heavy combat system, I also couldn't help but feel like the game "tried too hard" to convey its coolness.
