I never played the original Genesis version although I did play Mickey Mania which I thought was great. I feel like this is a pretty good remake and I enjoyed it a lot. The graphics are colorful with lots of nice little animations. Different themes appear in the levels and show much variety. The level design is quite creative with dynamic events occasionally. The music and sound effects compliment it well making it feel truly like an interactive fairy tale. It's definitely on the easy side for most of the game so it feels almost relaxing to play it. There is only a single path through each level but you're never only moving horizontally from left to right but in many directions. I feel like this is almost an ideal game to introduce to a kid as a first video game. As another person mentioned, it was annoying having to sit through the unskippable cut scene before the final boss.
I see the original Genesis game also had a sequel and I would've definitely liked to have seen this dev studio make a remake of it and/or a remake of Quackshot. It's too bad the studio was dissolved.

Hard to recommend.
Annoying hitboxes/control, good graphics/music. Surprisingly tough.
It left me an impression very similar to Mickey Mania, just not as frustrating.
