Classic fun :)

Grew up with these games. The art style took a lil bit getting mused to but every game has its own art style and I ended up enjoying the game from start to finish. Definitely feels like it could of used more a climatic duel of some kind with the boss man, like usual, but it didn't stop for playing the game for a second time :) good stuff!
