This is almost a perfect 10/10 for me but going for 100% is a pain in the side, please add the ability to replay levels for completion clean up.

I love this game. It's like being in an old cartoon and it's just fun. The early Popeye cartoons would be good with this treatment. I'm 71 years old.

This game has one of the most useless features, the "skip cutscene" button. You can not bring yourself to skipping a cutscene, because they are that good.

Despite what the minimum specs on the page says, you don't need 6gigs of V-ram to run this, the fact it can run on a steam deck means it can run on much less just fine.
