A disastrous side-scroller that is terrible in every way, and the system it's on isn't an acceptable excuse. Looks like it's not so easy to just bang out a Mario or a Sonic, huh guys? Along with the crushingly bad platforming mechanics and level design is the notably ugly character art ... secretly British-made?

While it is an improvement over the 7800 version, the only positive I can give it is that combat and style is better than whatever the hell the 7800 version was trying to be. But this game has the issue of everything on the screen trying to kill you and giving you this stupid Arc attack that causes you to have to reposition yourself when having to take out enemies that usually can take 1 hit to kill, or 2 hits sometimes. The worst thing is the crane claws as they halt your progress and if you so much as barely graze the claw, you're dead. I got to the second level, and I know this game isn't that hard, but honestly the music doesn't make me want to play this. It's a better version of the 7800, but it's meh.

This game is a load shit that's attempting to be like a 2D sidescroller like Mario but it's just tedious with it's amount bs enemies, and also stupid puzzles. Also the music is awful, not CRAZY BUS bad, but bad in the sense that it just sounds annoying to hear. The game just feels like an awful response to that of Mario and Sonic.
