sorted byThere was a really interesting article about it when it was first released. It was designed by a team of student game designers within the Sumo Digital future-devs project, which is really cool in itself.
Also interestingly, the original was made in Sheffield, and is referenced and on display in the National Video Game Museum.
...Yes, this was my absolute FAVOURITE game as a child, and I so I could talk about it all day!
EDIT: Use a card instead of PayPal. It was going through as Euros for some reason. (edited)
Nowhere near as good a game as people seem to think, especially compared to Sonic (which it was clearly ripping). Some really stop-starty awkward level design.
Will I buy this? No
Did I like the game? Yes
Do I like the memories? No
This is as good as it got, was really good.
Ending was crap though, it just said wait for zool 2, but it never came on the megadrive.
Interesting article about the project if anyone is interested
