Some of the worst controls I've seen in a 2D platformer. The old man has a deceptively low jump, so you won't be able to grab a lot of ledges that look like you should be able to grab and wall jumping is extremely difficult to maneuver (don't even think about wall jumping back onto above platforms when it's already obnoxious to wall jump to other platforms). Firing the pinon is often annoying too because you can't aim in any degree between 90 and 45, and between 45 and the horizontal. As a final complaint, I've watched the speedruns of this game, and they got past the final difficulty spike/section (which is where I gave up on this game) by clearing just one previous rope. But the clear button that I mapped to my controller (I had to do this manually because the automatic controller mapping doesn't work) clears all the ropes, so this section is virtually impossible for me to progress past. This was not worth my time at all and I cannot recommend this due to the lack of care put into the controls.
