Spark the Electric Jester is a creative mix of Sonic and Kirby, but it takes all the goofiest parts of Kirby: The parts where nothing you do matters because you can't die, the parts where the bosses have too much health, just stand there awkwardly for several seconds between attacks, and the attacks themselves can be just ignored by getting behind them, and unfortunately takes the Kirby route to harder difficulty by just reducing your health so that you CAN die but doesn't make the actual gameplay any more interesting only after you have already been bored by how trivial it was the first time.
There's a lot of love and talent in Spark 1 but I just don't enjoy the end product.
