The core gameplay loop is super fun and addicting. Ended up playing more then expecting to. Visuals look great and the sound effects make everything feel nice and punchy. My only real gripe is the pacing or scaling. You get overpowered way too fast, which kinda trivializes the challemge later on. Still highly recommend it though.
