That monster wasn't snarling, he was sneezing. He has a tissue in his hand! It's that little girl with the quantum physics books you should worry about.

Let me add some explanation to the 10 minutes. Ten minutes is just the time it takes to fly through the story, but the gameplay encourages that you keep playing those same levels over and over and try to beat your own combo highscore and unlock the various in-game stuff. That's where the game gets some needed length and it's actually quite challenging at times, if you really wanna max those combos.

Trying to use a point system and setting personal goals by reaching points or times is a lame way to try and excuse a short game. It just means the developer couldn't provide the content and expects the player to fill in the gaps.

Landing on a platform builds up your combo, however if you land on the same platform twice in a row, the combo resets so the trick is to land on every platform once and be pretty quick about it, so that you still have time to beat the stage by double jumping into the monsters face three times.

It's not just some Castlevania-esque music. It's a remix of Johann Sebastian Bach's 'Toccata and Fugue in D minor'. Someone must have heard it before.

Sure, I do. They don't call me COO of Nintendo for no reason. I got my extensive education (including classical music) in Harvard.

Actually, I'm executive vice president of sales & marketing. My mistake must've been a Freudian slip cause one day I'll become a COO. That's for sure.
