Unlike Sparkster Sega Genesis, Sparkster SNES recaptures the gameplay of Rocket Knight in a meaningful way, and the new Roll in his moveset just gives you an extra grip of control in your whacky movement. There are some insta-kill hazards that are incredibly frustrating, like in stages 2 and 8, (and one random spike that insta-kills in stage 5 despite no other spike in the game insta-killing)but outside that you have plenty of room to just zip around and roll around to recalibrate and it's just a good time. Goofy concepts are still here too, the ostrich level moving at extremely high speeds had me laughing the whole time. Music in this game is solid too. Also shoutouts to the music level where not only do you get to play a piano for a bit, but your rival can play too!

I could keep going but this is a goofy good time that I would consider the true successor of the first game. Just like Aladdin, the SNES versions of multiplats continue to be king.
