The humor of the game is something inbetween juvinile and adult humor. It can be charming or cringe at times. The story is fine enough and the gameplay is like a classic fun beat em up. The main thing about this game is that it doesn't just stay a beat em up game. For some reason there's sections that randomly change into different game styles, mostly for the worse. It'll swtich from a bullet hell to a racing game to other mini games. It really halts the pace of the game because these sections go on for way too long. I played this co-op with a friend and we both were so tired of the really slow sections and forced ourselves to play the rest of the game. Overall, you'd get the same experience just watching the cutscenes instead of actually playing the game.

This game has nice nostalgic visuals and a nice simple gameplay mechanic. There's also time trials and collectables for people who want to 100% the game. The downsize to this game is that sometimes theres just unfair angles that will kill you and someitmes you have to hope and pray that you get past a level. It took me so much endurance and grit to get to the end of the game. But, I felt like it was way too frustraiting to fight the game and controls to be worth it for others. Maybe if this game could get polished and rereleased with better controls, it could be better.

Maybe I just missed something, but I didn't feel connected to many of the characters at all. Especially the main character, Mae. The writing is well enough, but that's the only thing going for this game and I didn't feel like it was strong enough. I was bored through the majority of the game and the last half of the game seemed to slowly slink along. Love the art style and sometimes I chuckled and some scenes were more emotional than others. But, overall the game was unfortunately lackluster for me.
