I'll write a full review later, but in short, it has some of the most egregious balancing issues ever that it only gets away with because it's the most popular game of all time. It's fun, but god, the balance is awful.
this game did not have a single dull moment dude. from the moment i started playing the game to the end of it, i had a blast. perfecting peppino's movement is really satisfying, and having a gimmick per level really keeps you on your toes. also shoutouts to that one level called "oh shit"
