"I think this is a reasonable game, I do think it has some good qualities to it but I feel its slightly disappointing for Konami as their standards are usualy so high. Graphics and animation are fantastic, but its a bit on the short side and I'm not keen on the difficulty as the curve seems to be all over the place, with some sections requiring some memorisation. But there definitely are some interesting game play mechanics, there's some influence from Sonic here, but it does try to do its own thing with the dash bar and the skidding and running up walls moves. The minigames are a mixed bag with some of them being little better than guesswork and I feel like they often break up the pacing of the game a bit."
