The difficulty curve is just right, meaning you can choose from 5 different difficulty settings (easy, normal, hardcore, insane, suicidal) and play in whatever mode you feel comfortable with.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
23 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
In addition, the game comes with a built in soundtrack, something Audiosurf doesn't really do, so at least you can play exactly what song the developer was thinking of when you play the game, and the fact is... it works and by that I mean very well.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The combat is hectic enough to be challenging, but mindless enough to be relaxing.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
13 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The game is also a great multiplayer experience as you can play all the modes in competitive or co-op (this includes the boss rush mode).
