Unique vertical 2D-platformer with some seriously infuriating design choices. The game is clearly designed for competitive multiplayer, which I personally didn't play.

Arcade mode is fine but having an AI playing against you, trying to hit you and make you fall was really unfun. So I was looking forward to trying out the Time Attacks, as I had heard that beating the Hiking Master Times is really difficult.
However, on consoles and playing with a controller, it is simply impossible to aim diagonally at the "grabbing" points. There is zero aim-lock, and so you are forced to aim straight up from precisely below those grabbing points, making the ascent oftentimes suboptimal and frustrating.

Maybe the game would leave a better impression if played with a mouse. On console, I can't recommend it.
