Yeah it doesn't hold up great now, 27 years after it's release. But at the time it was revolutionary and set the standard for 3D platforming.

I had just graduated high school when it came out. It was garbage then too. Games like that are why games like Symphony of the Night were so popular at the time: 2D was still waaaaaay better.
