Soooo charming, and the story gets kinda emotional while you are not expecting! I remember playing it on PS1 way back in the day but I had to play again now.

The gameplay is super simple (jump and wind bullet, and that's it!) but the stages are VERY well done. It's purely 2D but the way stages are constructed in a 3D world makes them stand out.
Enjoyed it a lot! (played the remake on steam)
