Pros
Pro Extremely detailed physics engine
The physics engine allows for fully destructible environments.
Pro Endless mods
An in-game mod editor and Steam Workshop compatibility mean that there’s loads of content available.
Pro Keeps player coming back for more
In order to perfect a level there needs to be a lot of abuse beforehand, a lot of deaths. But once it all falls into place there is no better feeling of mastering a level.
Pro Concise tutorial
Dustforce has a very detailed tutorial that teaches the player all of the ins and outs of the gameplay.
Cons
Con Expensive for what is on offer
While the game has endless community content, the in-game content is lacking and may not be worth the sticker price of $19.99.
Con Only local multiplayer
Sadly the multiplayer aspect of Dustforce is local only. For PC gaming to exclude online multiplayer (when there are multiplayer modes) is an odd choice as the platform lends itself better to online play more so than sharing a single monitor.
