    (I'm reviewing the Sega Genesis version)

    This, right here, is what you get when you take a decent old computer game and strip away everything that made it good to begin with nothing added whatsoever. The visuals, I'm not kidding, look like they belong on an NES, the music is a joke because it just loops over and over (also "turning it off" will just freeze the music on the note it was playing when paused, so it's painful all around), the level design is terrible, as it's not fun or fair, and the gameplay just doesn't really exist here. It fights against you every single time you want to do anything, as doing basic things like jumping and walking will always most likely end up with your face on the floor because the character falls to everything and dies way too easily. It doesn't help that the levels are filled to the brim with enemies, which isn't fun or challenging. It's flat out unfair. Overall, I recommend everyone to avoid this game entirely, as it is an absolute embarrassment in every way and one of the worst games on the Genesis, if not of all time. The fact that this used to cost real life money is shocking, because this isn't even worth a penny.
