The bosses-apart from Lee himself, ironically-swing for the fences too, adding in tons of visual effects and special abilities to make them feel like so much more than just a tough punch sponge, but instead a clearly defined old school videogame boss.Ĭonsidering the levels are essentially straight lines, there’s a brilliant amount of creativity in these too. Level 2, on Lucas Lee's film set, features men in Godzilla costumes, aliens in flying saucers, and Indiana Jones-style closing walls to escape from. While the first level just brings some generic Toronto dudes as bad guys, as the game goes on the enemies increase in range. This creativity is ever present throughout the game. The same goes for the soundtrack, which sticks to the simplicity of the videogame cartridge era, but has such an infectious rhythm it'll stay in your head all day. Still, the colours are wonderful, and the art is bursting with creativity in every department.
As far as graphics go, it's a remaster of a ten-year-old game that even in 2010 embraced a retro aesthetic, so don't expect anything technically ground breaking or eye popping. While gameplay has issues, both solo and multiplayer, everything else is a treat.
