Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
The plot is simple, but all of the characters have funny little quips when you talk to them before/after healing them, and you'll get plenty of chuckles as you progress.
80 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Despite being made in less than 4 days the game has some solid gameplay.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
The whole reason that the blurriness is a big issue for me of the game anti-aliasing when there should be crisp, clean, upscaled pixel graphics, is because it makes the game look like I'm playing with cateracts or some sort of eye aberration.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The soundtrack is likewise in an 8-bit style and is a joy to listen to.

Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
...unfortunately it only works while a tool tip is present but by pressing the Windows key on the keyboard, then right clicking an item on the task bar, I can get the tiny window options tooltip to appear, making the game not blurry, and still play the game from my controller.
