Homage to the NES games of yesteryear.
Pros - The first and third stages are pretty fun. The background and graphics are pretty good. I'm not a huge fan of the music but it and the sound effects will make you think you're playing an NES game. The first and second boss battles reminded me of old NES fights.
Cons - For some reason, the dev decided to take the worst of NES platforming and put it in this game. The platforming is VERY hit or miss. You need precision jumping but with the icy physics, you could easily slide off the edge or in an attempt to overcompensate slide off the other edge. The fighting is hit or miss at times. The second, fourth, and fifth stages are horrendous at this.
Honestly, I'm not sure if I could recommend this as a good game.
