Really fun game, a lot of personality but has some significant flaws. The Camera is awkward, you can't angle the camera up or down, the 3d Sonic style homing attack's trigger is pretty difficult to make connect, and the item picking up and throwing feels terrible. The first 3 areas of the game are solid. Mafia Town, and the Subcon Forest stand out as both being really great 3d platformer worlds that are interesting to explore. I thought that the other 2 non-DLC worlds were just okay. Battle of the Birds has a few standout levels, but they really vary in their quality. The Mountain, is pretty okay and I liked the open world format a lot, however the last mission was tedious. One big complaint I have with the levels if how the actual missions seem to not use much of the area, or seem really short at times and then add in additional small areas instead of exploring the existing world. I think this game would have been better with 2 or 3 more levels per world in addition to the base levels and rifts. Its understandable the game has the flaws since its an Indie game, and the flaws I stated here obviously don't represent the entire experience. Most of the game was a really fun and good time, and I might have to check out other games by gears for breakfast in the future. It took me around 12 hours to 100% the game (not including the DLC) I will likely finish the DLC in the near future and review the DLC by itself.
