This game is sick, but as a fan of precision platformers, it's hard not to be critical of the sheer amount of mechanics. A lot of really novel ideas for the genre, but there's just so many gimmicks. Doesn't help that many of them seem to force the player into waiting for things...

That being said, the game is great at not throwing everything at you all at once. You're truly eased in. Beyond that the soundtrack rules, the presentation is nice, and the level of difficulty feels just right.

The physics are where I'm torn. When everything is working well, you truly feel like a champion wizzing through all the obstacles. On the other hand, I died a non-trivial amount of times to bouncing off of corners at weird angles.

There seems to be a lot of bonus content in this game, which is awesome. But while I like it overall, I can't imagine myself going back for it.
