Best game

Since day one

Super fun game

This game is really fun to go through but far too short in my opinion. The endless modes donโ€™t see to have a lot to them and there isnโ€™t enough map variety. Otherwise the gameplay feels really good (aside from weird hit boxes) and the main levels are really fun. The outfits and skins are a nice addition too. Overall I think this game is super fun and really good! I just wish it had more content.
