Eh... pretty boring. Levels are all the same with different artwork, you start with all the movement upgrades so there is nothing to chase after. Every level has the exact same objective. Save kids, collect chests. Play the first level and you've literally played the entire game. The bosses are.... painfully easy. Like... you just stand there and beat the crap out of them and your invulnerability frames protect you while you burn them down. Skip this one.

Beautiful graphics, good controls, but unfortunately very unfair. Long jumping sections where you have to dodge projectiles and swinging traps, plus flying enemies that chase you and hit you mid-jump... I'm busy enough just reaching the end of the level; I don't have time to worry about treasures and kidnapped children. I think it should be possible to lower the difficulty. Nevertheless, I recommend the game; anyone looking for a really tough jump and run game will get a lot of retro charm for very little money.
