I saw this in the top 200 SNES thread, and I gotta say, WOW! I haven't finished it yet, but it's definitely holding my interest. It's well-crafted, the music is unusual (in a good sense), the graphics are good, the controls are tight, the gameplay is super fun (reminds me a bit of Rocket Knight Adventures). Anyone else play this hidden gem?

Hmm I thought this game had its own thread recently, but I guess I'm just thinking about that top 200 thread.

I loved this game (and beat it) years ago when I rented it when it was new. I recently played through it again (emulated) and it still holds up. It's a little short and easy, but a good romp nonetheless!

I remember reading about this on hardcoregaming once. It looks like a pretty cool game.

Screenshot has me pretty interested, nice. I'll have to look into it. Always up for hidden SNES games.

looks neat to me, i'll have to try it out sometime

I sure have, and long before the 200 thread. I'm so glad it made it there, because from the box and the screenshots it's easy to write off as a non-descript mid SNES years platformer.

WRONG!

It has a Mega Man style type of attack system earning something new with each defeated boss, awesome graphics, backgrounds, music, Mode 7 in special bonus stages, pretty good control scheme, and a honest attempt at a decent story.

PLAY IT! NOW!

an awesome game indeed.

Amazing game! I purchased it and beat it last year. Very well balanced, it can be difficult without getting too frustrating.

That level with all the crisscrossing waterfalls drives me insane though.

saw a playthrough of this on youtube recently, and now seeing this...hmmmm, looks pretty rad to me, if I stumble into a copy maybe I'll pick it up

Do it man. It's cheap. I think I paid like 6 bucks.
