Rules: Beat the game

For some reason I've always enjoyed this game. It's easy to pick up and play, it's lighthearted, has good gameplay, a fun soundtrack, and it can literally be beaten in less time than it takes to come up with a thumbnail image for this video. It's also pretty unique for its time. Sure it might have a good deal of issues such as a lot of sprite flickering, a good deal of slowdown, grating sound effects, a glitchy looking heads up display at the bottom of the screen, and a bizarre pink horizontal line on the right side of the title screen, but none of those things really take away from the gameplay in my opinion. The pink line actually adds to it immensely.

Since this was one of the first gameplay videos I recorded and I didn't know any better, I was using RetroArch's built in video recorder, which likely affected the overall quality of the video. I have since moved on to using OBS which is superior. Come to think of it, this may have been the very first gameplay video I recorded.

I really like this game so I plan to check out some of the other games in the series eventually. Which one is the best?
