Fun, fair and with the heart in the right place.

I'm not the biggest rhythm, combo-collect-a-thon fan, but the humor is spot on. Sometimes acidic and grounded, with the overarching criticism of ruthless corporate life and tropes but packaged in a wholesome and optimistic way.
  • Platforming is okay, and when interleaved with combat sections the levels flow with a familiar cadence.

  • Boss encounters pack a ton of fun twists and surprises, so they don't get stale. I think there's a missing chunk of content between the final two bosses, so they probably ran out of time. The game suddenly enters the final phase.

  • Design-wise this game is going to age well. It oozes so much personality and good nature that the dialogs and quips overshadow any of the weaker level design, box-crushing-pickup-so-number-go-up mechanics or repeated enemies.
Props to the Spanish from Spain localization team and most of the voice actors. They did a great job adapting the jokes.
