I found the difficulty ramp to be perfect, I never felt completely at a loss, or bored.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
48 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Deadcore gave me mixed feelings, the visuals are absolutely stunning, I would find ways to get into the perfect position just to see the amazing view but on the other side, I found the last 2 levels pretty grindy and ended up throwing in the towel on the final level due to a minor jumping bug and simply getting lost since you're not exactly shown what to do or where to go.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
34 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The attention to quality with the music and SFX in this game blows my mind.
