Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
37 of 97 sampled reviews raised it
I found it very personally engaging, and if you beat all the secret bosses you make Flint feel like an orbital bombardment with legs, which makes the ending much cooler. (and easier.) Some of the models are super simple, but it meshes with the art style so well that it isn't jarring at all.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
26 of 97 sampled reviews raised it
Not a very long game, but a beautiful one with fantastic music, an adorable art style, and so much personality it almost hurts sometimes.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.

Bought the soundtrack to help out the Dev and because the music is awesome, looking forward to more from this guy!
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
26 of 97 sampled reviews raised it
Progresses VERY quickly for an RPG of its type, with a minimum of grinding.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
21 of 97 sampled reviews raised it
Very final fantasy-esque combat but has a few of its own little twists to it that make the game unique and fun as hell.
