With the arena guitar solo soundtrack, the arcade style action, the 8-bit graphics, the Star Wars joke, and the overall rock n' roll feel of the narration, this game took me way back to the '80's.
The challenge is good, but the action is a little slow for me. The game seems to drag to the point where I don't even want to redo level 1 once I fail. But I think I[ll stick at it. The controls are tight, the concept is strong, and I can already tell that there are some unique enemies in the game.
The story is fun, but I suggest adding a button to skip quickly over dialogue beyond the feature that lets you skip completely. I still want to read it, but I don't want to wait for it the advance on its own.
