Currently running through it. After 2 fairly short play sessions, I'm at Area 6 now. My two main complaints are that it seems VERY easy in comparison to the original game, and the music is definitely not my thing. I was hoping for some kick ass Sunsoft music from days gone by. But regardless, it's still an excellent game and I'm enjoying it a lot.

I think the music is fantastic, it defiantely feels like Sunsoft music to me. They were the best in business back in the day.

 

Other than that I do agree that the game is rather easy but still very enjoyable.

I agree that Sunsoft were one of the best in the business.  But I disagree that this music gives off any kind of sunsoft vibe, other than the music in Area 1, which is taken directly from the original game anyways.  Sunsoft music always sounded more "rock" than the music in this new game.  When I look back fondly, I look back to games like Batman, Blaster Master, Fester's Quest, and Journey to Silius. But like I said, it's not a huge deal.  Just a bit disappointing when I look back on the original Blaster Master with as much love for the music as I do the gameplay.

I think this is just something to be expected given how difficult games used to be. I read a few reviews that listed "difficulty" as a negative for the recent Dragon Boy game, and it's a cakewalk compared to the original.

I was just hoping that this game would be following the trends set by games like Shovel Knight and whatnot.  I've even read one review where it being too easy was a negative.
