Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
I played with a gamepad but I'd recommend a keyboard due to how much you need to spam left and right.
26 of 283 sampled reviews raised it
Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
Despite having some cool visuals (that are pretty cool in the second world particularly due to the shadowing) and a very clean interface, the levels and level design is too simplistic for a game worth to be on Steam and I really believe you can encounter something similar for free in the Internet.

Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
The controls are pretty much perfect, hitboxes are great and overall you'll never feel annoyed - everything goes as it's intended to work.
