I agreed more with your old review of Aero the Acrobat. I just don’t find that game fun at all.

If I remember right, There is also an GBA port of Aero The Acro-Bat, I assume the critic will tackle that later?

I would bet that it would be a port of the SNES version given how many SNES games were ported to the GBA. It’s funny to me that someone felt the need to port this game when so many more deserving SNES games were never ported.

BTW critic, Zero the Kamikaze Squirrel is in the Aero the Acro-Bat universe as the charter from that game was in Aero the Acro-Bat 1, a good idea to re-review that game and its SNES version if you get the chance.

That's an underrated one. The Critic hated the controls, but they really make the game stand out when you get a feel for them. The level design is, admittedly, very hit-and-miss.

Fun trivia about these games: They were designed by David Siller, who also helped design the original Crash Bandicoot but might be best known to longtime gamers as the original Sushi-X in Electronic Gaming Monthly's Review Crew (the alias was passed on to other writers after he left the magazine).

Ah, the glory days of EGM. Whem game magazines had substance. I loved seeing the separate scores and mini reviews from each critic for each game. I used to read those over and over.
