The soundtrack is excellent, featuring great metal tunes that enhance the gameplay experience.
The game is easy to get into, with a well-implemented guitar theme and creative enemy designs.
It offers a fun roguelike experience with unique bosses and the ability to unlock permanent upgrades, making each run enjoyable.

Difficulty spikes can be poorly balanced, making the game too easy at first and then suddenly very hard.
Power-up explanations are vague, making it difficult for players to understand their effects and strategies.
