The cover art is the best (and most-deceiving) thing about this game. If you get it on sale for under a dollar like me it MAY be worth your time laughing at how bad of a game this is. This is a difficult precision-platformer filled with instant death spikes. This is very "free internet flash game" quality with an absurd difficulty. It would amuse me for 5 minutes if it WERE such, instead it's $10 on the eShop. NOT WORTH IT.
Your hitbox is gigantic while you're moving or jumping, which means you'll get killed by spikes from a mile away, so safe jumps are nearly impossible. platforms are not clearly defined, either, so it's difficult to land on them. That's a bad thing for a platformer. There are blind jumps, too, where you need to fling yourself to your death to see where you're SUPPOSED to be going, and then make it struggle to make it back to that point. Bad game design.
I thought I was missing something, so I checked the controls and saw 3 abilities, but when I tried to perform them, none of them worked! The controls and difficulty are so bad I thought the abilities were just broken! (Turns out you unlock them over time, not that this is communicated to the player.)
Every level I had the patience to get to looks and sounds the same, there's only one grey-purple terrain type with the same decorations. It's hard to differentiate between what's the level and what's decoration, so my partner kept running into walls when they tried the game because everything's the same colour and shading. Also, every corner is visually rounded, which means that straight spikes being place over them float in midair, again looking like a free 2008 flash game.
I got to laugh at this game's awfulness and lack of online presence with my partner. Let me warn you again that your money will be wasted at a sale price. DO NOT BUY (basically ever).… Expand
