The traps are specifically designed to waste as much time as possible, and the bosses are also designed in such a way. I don't think there was a single fun boss in the game for me, much less any screens except for the single iconic VVVVVV screen. Not a huge fan personally.

The beginning of the game really doesn't do it justice to how awesome the game is later on. It starts off with restarting music, a bunch of traps, and mediocre visuals, but slowly, the game starts introducing crazy visual effects and really cool bosses. The VVVVVV area is a highlight of the game, and a lot of the late-game bosses have high production value and were fun to play. The beginning is the only section of the game that seems to lack effort.

Diverse has some nice creativity in it especially given the age of the game, and the variety of the boss fights and stage themes in particular was a highlight for me. Unfortunately I didn't enjoy the game as much as I expected to for a couple of reasons.
The bosses whilst mostly being thematically interesting and having strong variety as mentioned earlier, often felt tedious to get through due to the insta-gibby nature of some of them. Ultimate Luigi was a particular offender as was the Device fight beforehand. The bosses aren't necessarily bad but I suppose the particular style just wasn't much fun for me.
The other reason again is something which I don't think is necessarily a bad thing, but just sucked a lot of the fun out for me was the abundance of traps. It's the nature of the game and I didn't mind it for the most part, but a few segments felt like such a slog to get through. The final stage in particular had some screens that really just dragged due to the tedious flying-spike traps. That's not to say it was without some fun segments too, but the tedium ended up being more memorable for me.
Despite the gripes, it's a memorable adventure and I'd say definitely worth playing. I think most people will enjoy it more than I did in the long run. Also perhaps worth mentioning that I played the Sephalos mod version which replaced a couple of songs, fixed restarting music and made some visual changes, which no doubt improved the experience for me. Of course if you want the authentic Guy Rock experience then maybe you won't need it.
