This has such a cool feel. I'd give it 6/5 stars for GB soul if I could. The music/sfx and art are so good and feel so nostalgic. :D The look of the levels and everything is just incredible work.
The controls were a bit tricky for me. I don't mind a little deceleration, but the movement not stopping when I wanted to made the smaller platforms more difficult to jump than they should have been. The attack range was also tricky (which made combat less fun). And the jump/fall felt really good when the camera wasn't following. But when the camera was panning with... the fall gave this jitteriness that sort of bugged my eyes.
Overall, this was a super cool entry!!
