Poor Direction Control

Would be perfect if the control pad didn’t have such a lag….
After a few levels the villains get faster and you can’t navigate well. Bummer.
Not only is there a lag but the pad wont allow you to slide your thumb on the cross pad like Classic NES; you must lift to each point.
Not intuitive and not smooth. Again, what a drag

Fun game but needs some tweaking

This game is a blast from my past. I remember playing this game on my old Commodore 64 when I was a kid. Love playing the game however there is a bug that causes the game to crash between levels or when all your lives are lost. The only way to fix it is to exit out of the game completely then reopen it. It is something so simple but really effects the fluidity of game play. I would give it 5 stars if it weren’t for that bug.
