Other than that, what you see is what you get - clean and clear visuals with a signature flair alongside a powerful OST.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Gameplay: Within minutes I approved of the game's physics and movement.
4 of 68 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Visuals: I'd lay money that WaveLand was created in Gamemaker, which typically means the visual quality is largely tied to the skill of the pixel artist/animator.
