Another bit of nostalgia that I'm unsure if it hadn't aged well or maybe my thoughts were always the same on the matter. I was quite fond of playing this over the years but my most recent playthrough reminded me I didn't really play it for the gameplay as I might other beat 'em ups but simply to see the sights: levelling up, the enemies, the bosses, the stages, etc. I like it as it's quite a fun little romp but there's rarely any feeling to immediately revisit it rather to move onto the next thing and that might be a common refrain with these sort of games nowadays.
