A port of Disney's Toy Story
This game is based on the movie "Toy Story". It sets you as the character of Woody as you jump, swing and drive to the end of each level. Each level contains familiar scenes from the movie. The gameplay consists of the platform\sidescrolling kind. You use Woody's pullstring to defeat enemies like sharks, Mr. Potatohead and Ham. After each level, you are treated to still images from the movie.

Solid graphics, most of the characters are pre-rendered and look pretty good besides the main character, Woody; he looks kinda crap. Possibly having too many animations meant his resolution had to be lowered for memory reasons, idk. There are the occasional actual 3D graphics in the background to give it a bit of an edge.
I like that there are objectives you have to complete to finish the level instead of just being the typical get from left of screen to right of screen platformer. Wish I could get a recap of those objectives in the pause menu as well, but it's a licensed SNES title, we can't get too crazy

Disney's Toy Story on the SNES is a nostalgic trip and a great example of early movie tie-in games done right. It captures the feel of the film perfectly, the graphics were impressive for the time, and the gameplay remains surprisingly fun! It's a platformer with unique level designs based on scenes from the movie. Sure, it's got some tricky parts and dated mechanics, but if you loved Toy Story as a kid or enjoy retro platformers, it's still plenty enjoyable.
This game is painfully middle of the road. It's by no means horrible but there's a lot wrong here like how your health doesn't replenish upon level completion, or how the screen is cropped in a way that makes it hard to see what's coming, or how insane some difficulty spikes get later on. At its core the actual platforming and stuff is fine and functions well but the issues I mentioned hold back the good stuff from being great at all. It's just a passible middle-of-the-road platformer that is easily skipped.
