Pros
Pro 4 player local coop
Pro Physics-based sandbox design allows for a ton of mayhem

With the smattering of easter eggs hidden around the open world, it can be quite fun to try out different methods of finding them.
Pro Multi os support (Linux/Mac/Windows)

It's extremely satisfying to land that triple back-flip combo when running around the open environments of the game.

Cons
Con Becomes boring without buying DLCs
After exploring all there is to see in the game, it can become quite dull to the point that you will probably not play it that much anymore. There are DLCs available to extend the gameplay, though they do cost extra money.
Con You quickly run out of things to do
There is not much to do once you explore the game for a minute or two. It is mostly an open sandbox, but it can get repetitive due to how little there is for you to do.
Con Quirkiness of the game is definitely not for all audiences
Some people will take one look at this game and wonder "what's wrong with kids these days". It certainly isn't for everybody thanks to the quirky and pointless gameplay and purposefully horrible graphics
Con Touch controls not as accurate as they need to be
Twin stick shooter style game do not often control great with touch screens due to the lack of tactile feedback, while Pixelbite tries to mitigate this issue as much as possible, it is still a problem in some places.
