The gameplay is described as basic for a platformer, featuring polished visuals that somewhat mask its numerous flaws, such as awkward jumping mechanics and incomplete puzzle-solving elements. However, it successfully evokes nostalgia while incorporating updated graphics and mechanics, appealing to fans of the genre.
- “A great platform game, combines the nostalgia of my childhood with updated graphics and game mechanics.”
- “It's rather basic as a platformer, with just enough polish to mostly hide the plentiful rough edges. Don't be surprised if you can't jump while moving diagonally left-forward, moving platforms can just move without you if you board them wrong, and I think the puzzle-solving mechanic might just be incomplete.”
