Anyway, it is not Punch Out, but it is also not bad. it is very average in my opinion, the controls and movement are weird AF but gets the job done, I guess. the art style is fantastic! I can see that developers started to understand the NES architecture more in 1987 and took advantage of the graphical capabilities that were offered. the gameplay has big potential, but the weird controls hinders the game's potential.

Overall: play Punch-Out. there is nothing much here, but if you had this game, you will enjoy what is offered for a limited period.
