I don't like writing negative reviews. Games are a form of art, and tastes vary widely. I also understand how much time, effort, and skill it takes to create a video game. Let's start with the positives. The game boasts stunning pixel art and an absolutely fantastic, ambient soundtrack. The DLC with the music is definitely worth picking up.
