The core gameplay mechanic is intuitive yet easy to understand, and the game itself is very responsive and controls well. The sprite work is understated but effective and the music is catchy, so it really looks, plays, and feels like a classic GameBoy title. I guess my one gripe with it (which I know is his signature and was intended) is the difficulty, which spikes awfully quickly and is pretty demanding of the player. That's only a really minor issue, as I've still been able to get through most of the game, though I still feel it noticeably impacted the game's sense of balance. Regardless, overall it was well done and Red has definitely improved over time with his games. Good job man, I had fun with this one."}
