Amazing. Best graphics of any video game ever made.
There is a pig that runs a store, accessible in the beginning. And unfortunately, if you cannot view this pig and see the movement and the flow of his limbs and the frames of his scowl and understand the sheer amount of effort it took to make him look transported straight from the thirties, well, there's nothing I can do to convince you otherwise.
My brother and I would watch these old cartoons - cartoons that were thirty or forty years old before we saw them - when we were on family trips in Olean. It's like one of them come absolutely to life.
It's also a savagely difficult game. I guess it will always be famous for that video of the guy trying to get past the tutorial, but it is absolutely a platformer that is defeated by recognition and reflexes above all else so far. I love it.
Here's a video for some people unfamiliar with it:
