Within five minutes of finding world two (the ice world) I had discovered a warp to world three (a space world), a secret candy level and a few bonus games. However after beating the first boss the game really started to open up and reveal its true potential. The fact that all the character was capable of doing was running and jumping made the game seem pretty dry. I thought the game was too slow, too basic, too easy, and despite there being an over world I just ripped through the first five stages in order making the game feel pretty linear. Throughout the first world I was pretty underwhelmed with the game play. He’s also capable of a double jump which helps make platforming a little easier to deal with.
