Pros
Pro Fun twist on the game of tennis
Selfie Tennis works in an original way where the player will serve the ball to then see themselves teleported to the other side of the net to volley it back. This continues until you miss the ball or make a bad shot. Basically it is a two person game of tennis played all by yourself making each and every shot.
Pro Easily take in game photos of the silly gameplay
While you are playing the game there is an option to take "selfies", this can then be shared with friends or acquaintances through social media.
Pro Amusing characters
You can play as a unicorn, which makes for light hearted and funny gameplay.
Pro Awesome time-based mechanic
In Superhot time only goes forward when you move. This turns the gameplay into something closer to a puzzle game as you need to be very calculated with every move you make.
Pro Minimalistic yet beneficial art style
The art style in the game is very cool and minimalistic while actually serving to make the game easier to understand and play. The gameplay in Superhot relies on you being able to react properly to your environment, and the art choices make it really easy to understand what is going on around you.
Pro Lets you roleplay matrix-like battles
The coolest thing about this mechanic is it essentially lets you role play matrix-like battles with you dodging bullets, slicing bullets out of mid-air with a katana and an assortment of other badass things to do.
Cons
Con Movement is limited
As the player teleports between each side of the court, there is no way to choose what part of the court you teleport to, which can make it difficult to get shots that are near the edge of the court.
Con Somewhat simple for the price
There are no settings to adjust and there is only one goal of the game, to volley the ball back and forth as long as you can. This may not make for a deep enough game for some especially when considering the $20 price tag.
Con Short story mode
Although there are plenty of other modes with a lot of variety, the story mode can typically be beaten in around 2 hours.
