Great game!
The graphics were a very good feature about this game. I also enjoyed the "grow as you go" part of it. Games with that seem to turn out good in my opinion. For those people that haven't actually played the game and are reading reviews, there are spoilers below.
As I was playing, I came across the Secret Switches, I thought, heck with it I'll get them all, seeing as one of the signs said that activating them all would effect the ending. When I collected the 10th one, it said missile defenses, and I was like "Crap, I guess I'm gonna die when I escape." So I continued on collecting the rest of the tool kits and then repaired my ship. As I prepared for my intimate doom and clicked my way through the ending scenes, I saw the giant creature that was about to devour my ship and realized how totally incorrect I was in my assumption that the missile defense was going to end my "little orange friend's" life, and happily watched as the missiles destroyed the creature and allowed my escape.
Once again I must say that this was a very great game and I don't see how any competent platformer couldn't enjoy this game.
