Childhood game, heavy nostalgia bias.
Playing the game now, I can see clearly how this is Sonic Team's attempt at a Super Mario 64 and for the most part, it sets itself apart with its style and charm. However, as a kid, I thought that maybe I just wasn't good enough at games to really get the hang of it. Playing it as an adult as opened my eyes to just how broken the game is. Anytime you jump onto a platform and the egg lands on it and Billy falls off to his death, is infuriating. Overall, I still find it fun to play to completion, the music I find pretty comforting and there really is no other platformer that controls like this game. Just don't go for 100%, you'll go insane.
