It sounds like a genius idea to make a circus-themed platformer, but calling Aero the Acro-Bat a good game requires some serious mental gymnastics. Aero's diagonal jump attack sucks, you barely ever get any stars to throw at enemies, and the levels branch out in every direction with a different objective every time. Again, it SOUNDS like a good idea to have big branching circus levels you have to bounce around, but in practice it's boring as shit, just like Aero as a mascot. At least the graphics and music have some personality and there was some attempt to do something fun with the circus theme, like having trampolines, unicycles, and rings to jump through.
