What players think
The recurring themes across 86 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
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.
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.
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.
This game's inspiration is clear, and while it has quaint graphics of the era, a chip-tune soundtrack just passable enough to not become irritating, and gameplay controls well (on gamepad, keyboard absolutely sucks), it does not save it from doing a mediocre job at what its inspirations did infinitely better.

Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway.
