Yeah it's pretty fine, good 20 minute time killer.
Softlocking on death can be a bit of an annoyance sometimes tho

After buying this game on release date to check it out, I am pleased to say it was well worth the $0.59 I spent on it for the Introductory Offer. The game has tight controls and a satisfying 21 levels to beat and complete. Although the entire experience can be played with infinite lives on Easy, Hard mode prevents continues/respawns and I was challenged to beat all 21 levels on one single go. The whole thing took me just under 2 hours, but I look forward to returning to maintain my best time on the Hard mode leaderboard at #1.
7/10, worth a buck. More game would be worth more bucks, which I would gladly pay.
