Yeah I think it does, I had something similar with Fire Force which is also difficult to classify.

I really love the platform game genre, I think it's my favourite out of all of them. I still can't decide which game is my favourite so I'll list a bunch of them.
Ruff 'n Tumble
Zool 1 & 2
Bubble 'n Squeak
Mr Nutz: Hoppin' Mad
Brian the Lion
The Chaos Engine
Lionheart
Leander
Whizz
Superfrog
Bubba 'n Stix
Wolfchild
Fire & Ice
James Pond: Robocod
There's so many more, but those are the ones that jump to mind first.

Here's some of my favourites:
- Parasol Stars
Excellent two-player mode makes this a winner, but it's of course fun in one-player mode as well.
-
Superfrog
One of the best platform games I've ever played. Nice detailed graphics, cool music, and fine gameplay. Also enjoyed the arcade minigame.
-
Rodland
Like Parasol Stars, this game has a brilliant two-player mode.
-
James Pond
Great game.
-
Giana Sisters
Classic. Are we going to have a competition in this game soon?
-
Damage
Brutal game from Finland. Keywords; Narcotics and baseball bat.
