What the game does well is mixing platformer tropes to create a new experience. Also, I find the collecting in this game much less tedious than in the new Donkey Kong Country games, where you will often have to replay the entire level just to get a puzzle piece because you missed a banana. Personally I always tried to collect all the coins in old mario games anyways, even though you didn't really get anything for them. In reality this is no different than collecting all the coins in super mario world, except you need them to progress. I think it is also worth note that to progress through the game you collect gems, or you collect berry things which get you more gems. It mixes high difficulty with low difficulty too often some of what you do will be too easy or forgiving, other parts will take you some tries. The repetitive music You will hear this a lot about this game, it reuses a lot of the same music, and it isn't even particularly interesting. I would say it's biggest shortcomings are as follows: The levels are too long This actually is quite noticeable, I will often turn my switch off halfway through a level. I decided to buy the game because of the clear care put into it, I could tell that the developer knew what they wanted to accomplish, knew the aesthetic they wanted, and, in general, had a certain level of understanding for what makes a game great. And there are lots of sidescrolling games with platforms, but very few stick at all to classic platforming design.
There are plenty of physics platformers Celeste, Meat Boy, N+ etc. I bought this game at release because it looked like a good traditional platformer, which is sadly an under-represented genre these days.
