Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
By all accounts this game is actually pretty well made, and overall reminds me of a mid 2000s flash game in the way the upgrades and simple gameplay are set up.

I was also very surprised by the sound and music quality, which I only realized how good they were, after I had a YT video playing on the side.
