What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
TL;DR: Awful controls and combat, Amazing soundtrack, Meh graphics at times (Pretty beautiful pixels for most of it), Minor bugs around, Not really replayable despite the game pushing it
The 3 main environments are well done and you can do them in any order, which helps with the replayability, since each area has some upgrades that boost your character's stats.
The whole game has an interesting sci-fi feel to it, even if the story doesn't make the most sense.

Theme by theme
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. One more theme was raised by fewer than 6 sampled reviews and is not shown.
