I agree with the others about the camera. The fixed perspective made it really hard to tell where some of the floating platforms were in relation to the proceeding ones. Sometimes they had shadows on the ground which helped, but usually they didn't. Onto the good news, the rope swinging segment in the first level is seriously some great game-feel. Get the rhythm just right, and you can really get into it.
