Shout out to my buddy Parrott for gifting me this game. This game became kind of a meme in our community, like what the hell is spark the electric jester, and who the hell is playing this game. I had zero interest in this game (I'm not a big sonic fan) but to be honest, I walked out of this one pleasantly surprised and had more fun then I was expecting.
99% of this game was just balls to the wall super fun, keep running action. It felt like Sonic but a bit dumbed down which I appreciated, and a cross between kirby and megaman as well. Where the game really kinda fell off a bit for me was right at the end. I think the last stage just grinds everything to a hault, not only with its difficulty but with the precision platforming you're required to do (which was not working on the steam deck, unfortunately, this game runs awful on deck).
I think it was cute that they tried to have a story here, but it just made me cringe more than anything else. Hey though, game was far better than I was expecting. Will I ever play the sequels? Doubtful. But I had a good time.
