Hey, remember this guy? He used to be kind of popular, once. My friend and I used to play this game all the time when we were younger.

Graphics: So, the special effects aren't the greatest. But, the credit goes to the well-designed sprites, with plenty of detail and true to the character.

Sound: For some reason, the tunes tend to stick with you for quite a while. Sound effects aren't impressive.

Game Play: Holding down the B button will charge up the character's special ability. Normally this is good, until you have to ride a platform across a bottomless pit or a river. If you are, don't hold the button for too long after firing, or you'll launch yourself into oblivion. Also, try hitting down to duck while on the blue planet; it'll stop the sliding. You can also change characters at any time, provided you've freed them...nice.

Overall: It's actually a pretty good game...somewhat of a dark horse. Like I said, just be careful with that B button...
