I would have given this 5 stars if it wasn't for the bullshit weeb story and characters. Luckily the story part isn't what you're playing it for and they fortunately allow you to skip through all the story scenes (and thank god because there's a lot of it).

The actual meat of the game, the platform speedrunning is amazingly well done. It feels really good to control, the levels are fun and they keep throwing new stuff at you to keep you interested right up till the end of the game. I don't mind the flat cartoon style graphics, it also has this vertical scanline effect over the top which gives it a sort of retro feel. The best thing about the graphics though is that it doesn't get in the way, easy to run on even moderate hardware and very smooth frame pacing which is what every good speedrunner game needs.

The music isn't my style, some fast paced techno rave shit that at times feels like an assault on the ears, but I guess it gets you pumped for the fast paced gameplay.

Another thing I really liked though were the sidequest levels, they gave you something a little bit different when you wanted a break from the main missions.
