Progressively gaining the ability to jump higher and run faster is especially fun when you can storm a heavily fortified base and b-line directly to kick the head boss off a building that used to seem impossible. HOWEVER, that's not enough to save this from being an overall tedious experience. If you've played a sandbox game with cheats you've played a better version of this, simply slapping a cel shader on everything doesn't hide how bland this world and characters are. The limited arsenal also feels like a missed opportunity. This only started being fun literally at the very end when I was all powered up, meanwhile most of the game is spent trying to find a way onto a building and looking for orbs to hopefully make the game more fun.
