An extremely competent kirby game. The new powerups and the touch screen inventory are fun ideas, even if they don't always work in concept. I cannot say there's any super poor level design, or that I didn't enjoy the overall gameplay.
However, I wish that the game was more difficult than it is. Kirby games aren't difficult games, but especially compared to the games following this one, it felt way too easy for most of its run. Having a Kirby final boss, an absolute cosmic abomination, be easier than almost every single boss is downright shameful. Soundtrack isn't as particularly memorable as other Kirby games either, although the Squeak's theme is pretty great.

Great game, I just wish it was better.
