Tried a little bit of this to see if I wanted to keep going and I'm not sure. Everything about the presentation is excellent, from being able to capture nuances of mascot platformers from the N64 & PS1 while still having a very distinct style to a really warm, cozy atmosphere I admire a lot. When it comes to the gameplay though...it just feels off? Like the levels were designed to have a lot tighter movement controls but the movement you do have makes it seem like the levels should be way bigger & more speed/float-focused what with the roll and kind of butter slippery movement. I don't want to rate it since I didn't get through a ton of it, but I think something like Corn Kids 64 might have captured this feel a lot better for a recent release. Not against revisiting this though, it has potential.
