Im playing through this right now. Easily one of the best 2D games I've ever played. The mechanics and level design is top notch. And the visuals/sound/music are perfect,
The game overall is incredible and doesn't get nearly the attention It deserves. One of the best opening sequences of all time. It's a work of art. I haven't cared so much about a 2D cartoon character in so little time since I saw the Gargoyles get destroyed in broad daylight. :mjcry:

And that's just the beginning of the game, it starts crazy artistically. But game design wise it's just as good. I swear this studio (or collaboration of worldwide devs/artists) just matched Nintendo/Ubisoft/Retro Studios on their first project. Im on the ice temple, and the anti-gravity stuff is just crazy. Game may as well be made by Retro Studios, it's like a combination of Metroid and Donkey Kong Country Returns. :ahh:

Great game, have like an hour left to do to finish it. Definitely the best XBone game out there...which no X-Box owners actually play.
