I love this game so much. I know I keep saying it, but every time I play, it feels like a rollercoaster ride. Same sense of speed, intensity, theatricality. It really stands out from my other games in this respect.
Like, there are a lot of games that are "fast," but it's something about the way this game is fast. I think it's how it focuses your attention down the track, so you're mentally leaning into the ride, so to speak. And how every action and reaction has this visceral HD Rumble feedback (on Switch), combined with the flashy effects and pitch-perfect sound and general atmospherics.
It's amazing. It's possible I may encounter a challenge too great in this game, at some point, but I'll always have fun replaying the previous worlds.
I feel like the greatest challenges were the unmissable ring and lane switching.
If you can get past that you can get past anything.
I gave up at 5-3... Will revisit it later today.
If I remember correctly, the course teaches you the sequence before the unmissable laser ring returns.
Basically they give you a trial/practice run before they give you the life or death test.
I actually missed this little detail/hint my first playthrough because I was so intimidated by that thing.
