In terms of gameplay, the best way I can describe it is Contra meets Megaman, with the combat using a weapon system similar to Contra but with an ammo count, and the movement and overall feel being closer to a Megaman game.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

I actually really liked the games visuals the more the game progressed with the final level being a 100% my favorite visually and there are some really nice vibrant colors, since we're not playing on a CRT, but the levels feel pretty boring at the very beginning of the game.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
12 of 87 sampled reviews raised it
Overall the first half of the game is really fun, the level design really shines and allows you to do some some fun platforming and combat works really well.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.

One last thing to mention is the absolute banger of a soundtrack, there's not a single bad track in the whole OST, it's all chiptune greatness and I really wish we could buy it as a DLC.
