Cons
Con Controls on the keyboard don't work that well
The game is clearly designed with a controller in mind. Specifically, a mechanic that allows throwing enemies and various objects uses the analog stick to aim. Aiming using the keyboard is limited to 8 directions and is not sufficiently precise.
Con Subpar combat system
The combat feels clunky in comparison to actual fighting games.
Con Sometimes you just can't win
Depending on your friends, people can make maps impossible to win. This can get very frustrating. However, bombs are present to remove dangerous objects. This only occasionally becomes an issue in party mode.
