Totally works just fine.

I think there's a lot of things preventing this game from being a classic.
The camera fights the level design a lot, I think a fixed camera in many places would have been preferable, or something more overhead and zoomed out.
The movement feels flaky and not very reliable. Walking speed is fixed at a low value, no tiptoes or analogue speed, just direction. When jumping off slides, there's no air control at all, but otherwise, there's a surprisingly high amount everywhere else.
You'll probably fight the game feel more than the level design in this one, but it's still very cute and good fun. The idea would sit right at home on N64 or PS1, and the low framerates of that generation hardware might even disguise the bad movement feel.
It might have been better with tile-based movement ala frogger and it's kin, actually... But I can't really say if that would be the case.

Worth a look if you see it for very cheap on sale.
