Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“Pretty platformer with amazing graphics and animations, funny story and characters, and terrible controls. Unfortunately it's almost unplayable because of this.”
“Clunky and difficult to control. Requires minute precision but has badly defined hitboxes that makes it difficult to time your jumps especially when one touch means instant death. Music is repetitive, gameplay uninteresting, story…”
