Still retains what it once had, minus the sound quality.

This game is a direct port from the original game that came out on the playstation1 many years ago. It hasn’t changed at all, all remains as it had been, with no exceptions. This may be a good thing for those who it enjoyed it the first time round, but others will be getting frustrated on the same places as before. The difficulty is still nail bitingly hard that leaves you in fits of anger at places. The minute the game begins, first timers will realise they are in for a very long and thought out platformer, which seem to have been growing more and more every year.
The sound is a big let down. It still has the same tunes that stick in your head like toffee in your teeth, but the sound production seems to have been completely disregarded, as the sounds are all muffled and difficult to make out. The regular effects are ok, but the background music is very indistinct at times.
The style is the same brightly coloured happy-feeling-fest that it was before. And once again it has something strangely French feeling about it, so all the atmosphere has been retained. One problem is, although the background to each set of levels may be very different and vary massively, but unfortunately each and every level has the same atmosphere and feel to it, and you sometimes feel that the only difference of most of the levels are the backdrops and the enemies’ look. All of the enemies have the same walking speed and reactions to what u do, only height is different, so there isn’t much variety there.
The game is quite long, with lots of levels in which some are optional. Also, for those who love to get 100%, most levels need to be replayed once you receive new abilities to unlock and reach all of the cages, giving the game an even more length.

Gameplay: 8/10, Still as fun as it was.
Sound: 5/10, Fuzzy background music and muffled sounds.
Style: 9/10 Still feels French :P.
Length: 9/10 Lots to do with massive replay value.

Overall: 7.8, still retains every thing it once had, except sound.
