How I wish I liked this game, the characters are very charismatic, the world is very alive, and the music is very pleasant, but the game is very frustrating in several moments with blind jumps, some enemies that don't give you enough time to react, and the open map doesn't work very well in a more "linear" 2D platform game like this, but what really bothered me a lot was the lives' system, the extra lives don't respawn, and the game saves the exact amount of lives you had at the time, so if you saved the game with 0 lives, be prepared to see the title screen and load the save multiple lives, because when this game has no mercy, it REALLY has no mercy. Maybe in the future I'll give this game a second chance, because I feel like it's a game that really deserves it, and maybe it was Skill Issue on my part, but I didn't find the controls and the gameplay fun enough for me to keep playing it.
