Gameplay

Always loved the customization of the first game and this one builds on top of it, especially in ship customization.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
87 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Also love the devs decision to keep the buy and sell price equal (provided your weapons are not upgraded), this means you can easily try out different combos too see which one annihilates the test range the fastest.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
69 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The final boss theme and the Water World theme are the best on the soundtrack but they're far from the only good ones.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

It's the Jets'n'Guns you love, with better graphics, bigger bosses, bigger explosions, and more guns.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
If you got the cash, especially when its on sale, you can go for it, there is fun to be had here, especially if you wanna do couch co-op with someone.
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
7 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Along with this, there is also controller support which i think it would be easier and more fun to use as opposed to using keyboard and mouse, which itself isn't bad as the controls are still nice.
