Very fun game. Great nostalgia trip. The same studio that made Sea of Stars. I don't think $18 is a bad price, but it has been free to <$5 on PC in the past, so it seems like a lot.

Great writing and platforming, but I only really enjoyed the first half. Unless you are collecting physical, I would just get it for much cheaper digitally.

Very fun game. I'm not normally one for platformers, but really enjoyed this one. The story and dialog were entertaining, too.
