Reception
Mean Machines Sega gave the game a 70/100, praising the games visual looks, although stating "The actual gameplay, roving the left -right level from point to point, becomes repetitive".[1] Total! gave the game a 79 out of 100, describing the game as being difficult and having "odd gameplay flaws", although also writing that the game "manages to display most of the traits of a good, solid platformer".[2]
