Contrary to people who cannot play platformers and complain about the movement being "boring" / "sluggish".
Play some of the old "Mega Man" games first.

If your actually good at the game and don't get hit every 20 seconds the game becomes probably the most satisfying 2D platformer to play and get high scores on. Hard mode rules in this game.

Incase u complain about the story, i'll admit it sucks. But you do not play this specific title for the story.
