Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Visually, Abduction Bit stays true to its retro inspiration with an 8-bit pixel art style that emphasizes clarity and readability.
12 of 85 sampled reviews raised it
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
Good sound effects, very authentic to 80s arcade games, but only a few melodies.
5 of 85 sampled reviews raised it
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
Another interesting quirk that I found out (which will benefit anyone struggling with this game) is that co-op mode allows the use of two players to engage with the game but, due to the way the stages are designed, you are practically never in any danger from your starting points.

Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
There's partial controller support, i.e. you need mouse to navigate some menus but gameplay has full support.
