Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Graphics are really cute, the two bosses I've met so far have really sweet animations and the character design overall is great, the ghosts are my favourites so far.

Audio

Music works well with the environments and the sound design stay very true to retro games like Castlevania. holding 'Down' to dance is a fun detail as well.
