Cons
Con Getting the best ending is almost impossible without a guide
Getting the best ending requires a few highly counter-intuitive if not nonsensical actions to be taken.
Con Disturbing story
With how cute the game looks, the story is surprisingly dark.
Con No complete version
The exclusive content based in platform means that there is no single edition that has every available option. The Switch release seems to come closest, but even it is missing some options available in other releases.
Con Not as graphically advanced as commercial competition
Con Getting stuck upside down
After a crash a pilot may be stuck in an upside down position with no way to recover.
