However, most of my favorite games were a mix of DOS & NES games though my NES was stolen so I was only left with playing DOS games through most of my childhood. It was probably a good thing because I may never have discovered gems like this game. This game does take most of its inspiration from Wonderboy in Monsterland but in some ways does it better. The music is top notch and gameplay hits the sweetspot for me, Difficult. If you are looking for a true sidescroller from the early 90's to go with your Commander Keen or Duken Nukem 1 & 2 collection then add this to it and support the guys who are keeping these games alive on steam.
