21 of 179 sampled reviews raised it
Just like tons of great platformers, you got your power ups, platforming action, some good voice acting, (I miss the original voice actor) no platforming damage and most of the complaints from many youtubers, 90's gamers and even gamers of new, have vanished from this game.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
20 of 179 sampled reviews raised it
While the game may be a little on the short side with 11 levels and 3 boss battles, it offers tons of replayability resulting from its level design.
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
5 of 179 sampled reviews raised it
Also, a fun little extra is that you can use the Right stick on a controller to pan the camera a bit vertically and/or horizontally in case you need to see past the camera, and this works well actually, I really appreciate this feature.
