Gameplay

Floaty controls plus small platforms.
Attack with a frisbee which takes a strange looping path.
Enemies pop out and have no hit box.
Terrible hit detection. It's generous both ways but still annoying.
Greendog's sprite is enormous - takes up half the height of the screen.

2 / 5

Level Design

Typical Western dev stuff for the most part. Long levels with a steady stream of the same stuff over and over.
Movement is slow with infinitely spawning enemies and floaty mechanics.
Every three levels or so there's a weird mini game style interlude, like a shooter-esque levels where you're riding a unicycle helicopter. Yeah it's weird.

0 / 5

Theme

Uhhh. Such 90s crap. A man-child doofus. I mean, dude.
A bikini clad girl informs you that you're cursed to gather ancient relics.

1 / 5

Art Style

The graphics weren't horrible but the main sprite is truly pathetic. It's a step down from Lester the Unlikely, if you can believe that.

2 / 5

Audio

Yet another Genesis games with obnoxious music which uses grating sounds. Not the worst I've heard but it's pretty bad
