ActuGaming
Good controller (or keyboard) sensations in hand.
A rhythm that only stops to allow us to catch our breath.
The rather convincing arsenal that we are encouraged to use in its entirety.
Really cool and perfectly complementary bestiary.
A very affordable price (just over 20 euros).
Level design that lacks madness and secrets.
Content limited to a solo campaign that ends quickly.
A bit too many sponge balls among the enemies.
Version Switch sometimes struggling

So much fun that it can satisfy both the nostalgic and the non-nostalgic.
Frantic and never frustrating even at high levels of difficulty.
Many improvements and secrets to discover on each map.
The presence of a mini map would surely have helped with orientation.
The enemies are very repetitive and lack a decent AI.
