In my opinion the best Anti-Gravity racing game to date.

- Looks and plays great
- Unlocked framerate if you change some settings
- Great graphics (I have a few nitpicks here and there but that's just me).
- Great soundtrack (some tracks are 1:1 but better)

Overall a great remaster and the price tag is definitely justified by the amount of content and care they've put into the game.
Buy this if you like platformers or played the original 3 games, it's a great experience!

Can't wait for the Spyro remaster!

This should be an Early Access title.

When you first boot up the game it does feel like an old school shooter and the presentation is just on point, too.
I started the tutorial and was introduced to this good looking female guide that gave me advice for the different mechanics in the game. The VHS style screen effect is just awesome and I felt like playing Quake on an old monitor. Weird thing is, that they only use that effect in the tutorial which should be an option for the main game.

After I went for my first run I felt right at home, the screen that melted down is just straight up copied from Doom which is an awesome effect. Like I said, presentation is on point in this one. I went to the first corridor with a shotgun and shot some guy (I got swarmed by a lot of enemies even in the first room) but something felt weird. The shotgun just felt very weak and it missed that kind of "OOMPH" that you get when you shoot a shotgun. After working my way up to the different rooms the game just felt a bit lacking. The sound design is pretty terrible throughout which shouldn't be a thing in this type of game. Animation wise it just feels like a really old game, they look pretty bland and behave like that, too. I know it's supposed to be an old school shooter but that doesn't mean that you have to include the flaws of the old games, too.
The level design is also pretty bland most of the time which I could excuse if the core gameplay would be better. It's just lacking a lot of things and I seriously hope the developers continue to work on it heavily to make the game what it should be. It has the groundwork and a lot of things feel very good and even funny but in a good way. Then it does so many things wrong which ruins the whole experience to be honest.

I can't recommend the game at this price tag.

I had a lot of fun, playing this game! I needed 12+ hours to complete the story and I still have to find a lot of things. If you have the money buy it!
