Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Excellent retro graphics, nice bright colours and they move at a blistering pace, there are some retro filters in there as well such as C64, Spectrum and CRT which is a great touch, animations and movements work really well and no slow down so pays great homage to the original game but in a much more colouful way.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
I would rate this game positive, because of its decent arcade action gameplay and challenging difficulty, but I can't recommend an abandoned game with broken achievements.

The unique boss battles are a standout..great design, great art, sound, music.
