Played on the SEGA Genesis Collection (PSP)
Took me about 4 hrs to beat using save states.
I highly doubt I would be able to beat this without save states. I got to the 10th stage without using them, and was going to drop it, then looked up how many stages it has, and when I saw it was only 48, I decided to use the save states the Collection allows to make it through it. There are only a handful of stages that I would consider to be extremely hard. Since you can only get up to 8 lives, those stages would use up whatever I had left extremely quickly.
The huge issues I had with the game are the extreme sliding and ridiculous pinballing off the walls. It's also really difficult to fall through very large gaps in the platforms, as well as jumping up through them, especially with the bouncing off walls issue. For being a bird, you'd think you'd be able to do something that resembles flying.
I probably would have really liked this, if not for the control issues.
