Pretty fun goofy game with some rather tough platforming. Beat the game in 200 ish deaths, so now I gotta grind the last 800 to 100% :P

Its exactly what you expect. 25 layers of jumping dying and repeating. I have played many of these types of games and even tho the anger is real, they are still enjoyable including this one.
