Is this the best sprite work I've ever seen for a Gameboy game? I think it might be! Even better than Megaman V. Amazing work.

Completed on emulator (no savestates)

A quite decent port of DKC2 that somehow manages to keep the core of the original game but with fewer levels. I'd say it's the best of the Land trilogy.

Nothing really remarkable about it. An "Ok" game.
