This game felt like a slog to get through. I liked how whimsical it got, but the presentation and narration felt pretty obnoxious after awhile. Wish there was more QoL like a collectable counter during the level instead of after, a fast travel system, and faster screen transitions (loading screens are super long). Mechanically, the platforming was solid, but there was the occasional bug that forced level restarts. Some levels felt like they were made to be as inconvenient as possible, especially with how hidden the collectables were. I will say that I liked the co-op and how customizable the player character is. Probably won't be coming back to this one though.

Finally getting to replay this, first time since its release on the 360 back in 2013. Playing through with a friend. Forgot how much I loved Stamper's narration.
