Gorgeous little Famicom game! As denpaloli mentioned in a review before mine, the biggest flaw with this game is surely turning the character around. Which is a shame, since the actual momentum the character moves at is quite satisfying, and feels great once you start getting into a flow with the level design. The slowness of the turn though, and by proxy how long it takes for you to be able to attack after turning, makes navigating any zig-zag-like patterns a little sticky. Aside from that, this game's level design and enemy placement is surprisingly breezy and fair, considering other games that came out at the time. A great game to pop on and run through in an afternoon - don't feel bad using save states towards the final bits though! (Also worth mentioning that this game's first level features one of those notorious full-screen NES waterfalls; if you're photosensitive, be aware of that going in, as well as a few cutscenes towards the end with pretty aggressive flashing.)
