Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
It would certainly be even more fun in co-op, something I will be trying the next time I have someone over.
93 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
I tried all the characters after finishing the game for their achievements and I can see how the obligatory different playstyles of each class would add massively to replayability.

The pixel art is beautiful and suitably cartoony as is the voice acting of every character.

All in all, great game, been enjoying it on my Steam Deck and I can't wait to try the co-op if my brother picks it up.
