The Good
Fast-paced action, with a refreshing simplicity in the design. Good music, even if it could have used a few more tracks. Responsive controls.

The Bad
There's no difficulty levels or assist options, and the last few levels get a bit too fast. You basically have to memorize the level to have a chance instead of being able to react, and even then you'll need to play through them a significant number of times. Granted, you don't need to collect all the trophies or complete the secret levels, but I would have preferred the game to cap the difficulty a bit lower, if only for the sake of my wrists.

The Bottom Line
Look, it's a skateboarding alligator straight from the 90s where the gameplay consists of hitting up and down at the right times. The game is a good execution on that premise. If you want something deeper, go with the sequel.
