    1st comment :)

    Been keen on the look of this since I first seen it, looks a lot like oldschool meets new, can't fault a good platformer & looks like you highly enjoyed it, I'll buy it when I'm done modding, tempting to already but want to get my mod done. :D

    Played the demo, enjoyed it, I'd say it was worth, nice animation, good controls, looks lovely, only reason I have not picked it up is because I am thinking of buying it on console so the missus can join in.

    Played this at a friend's place on the xbox. It's hilariously good. Especially the insane chest-chasing levels.

    I'll get this once it hits £10 or below on steam.

    Oh, by the way, does this suffer from an always-online Ubisoft DRM?

    I feel sorry for you, you are going to miss out on a brilliant game :)

    I played this on the Xbox and for the number of hours I have sunk in to it it is easily worth £20.

    ...Especially when I consider my attempts to complete the chest chasing levels. Oh, and there are two endings in the game as well...

    ...In fact Just saying '60 levels' doesn't effectively portray just how massive this game actually is!

    Oh wow...finally a game that makes you laugh and have true fun! There are no DRm problems this time it seems...frankly, you wouldn't even know it was Ubisoft in the first place!

    I completely follow that score: worth every cent.

    Oh and I'm seriously loving the music...

    Can it be as gamepad-throwingly-frustrating as the original?
    If so, I'm in!
    The original Ray/Gay-Man was the best platformer I have ever played (sorry Mario/Meatboy)
    I never thought much of the 3D incarnation's though.
    Like other's said, when I see this for a tenner, it be mine.

    The first page says US Price $19.99 and when you click the link it takes you to the steam page where it's $29.99...

    Joe! What happened to only giving high scores to high-brow, indie, niche games??? LoL...
    Are we starting to see the 'real' Joe Martin???
    LoL...
    Good variety of review - thanks, chap!

    This is already under £16.00 on Amazon and I expect to see it under a tenner in weeks rather than months. Might pick it up when it's a bit cheaper as it looks fun.

    Wasn't sure when I first played the demo but after a few more goes I decided that I really like it.

    It's nice to have a break from all the violence and blood in so many games these days, and even on my rather old desktop it runs totally flawless !

    this game is awesome. Although I'm surprised bit-tech have not mentioned anything about the Vita.

    This game is made for the PS Vita!
