I purchased the game since it has a very possitive reputation. However, I'm left dissapointed, a few tries in, and you'll know what you're into.
Learning the patterns of the enemies and combinations is crucial to succeed. Those patterns are not hard, but the random generation will ensure a wonky difficulty curve that will hinder the learning process. Maybe you'll have a few hard levels on the beggining and then speed trough the later ones, or you'll go ahead and reach the final levels easily only to die to 3 different new enemies.
The controls feel great, but inadequate for the challenges ahead of you. Multiple items are available for purchase, offering variety in the gameplay, but there are so many useless ones you'll rarely get something worth your while.
Nice style and average music. it's barely an average game, but it has a lot to offer. Do not expect to be engaged by it from beggining to end, and it may have what you want.
