It's very easy to overshoot before you get a hang of the controls. The game is actually so short that you can beat it in under 5 minutes if you ignore collectibles and know what you're doing, so the monster switching mechanic and most other mechanics aren't used to their full potential[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]Bugs/glitches[/td] [td]Ran smoothly[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]Other issues[/td] [td]Seems like three worlds are locked and cannot be unlocked.

I like that the blob leave slime on the ground you touch and the transformation mechanic is cool in theory, but it's so short that most mechanics are used twice or so before the game is abruptly over. There's no incentive to collect everything either apart from unlocking achievements, so there's very little to this. Feels like an abandoned project since many stages are locked and remain so even after reaching the end. I didn't have a bad time with it, but being as short as it is, it's not really something I can recommend, unless you really want to buy it on sale and get the trading cards.
