Wow, I can't believe the cold reception on this game, because this is actually so fun and creative. I will admit the controls leave a lot to be desired, but that's easily the worst part of the game, plus some questionable design choices on a couple of levels. But otherwise, it's quite fun. The gimmick of switching between platforming and either 2D space shooter or overhead shooter (à la Blaster Master) is very fun and much more creative than I expected from this game. Plus, the soundtrack goes very hard.

It's not perfect, and only has sixteen levels plus bosses, but I genuinely don't get the legacy of negativity surrounding the game - I've heard it been called the "worst Cartoon Network game", no way can that be true.
