Has anyone tried this game?

It's on Steam and Xbox 360 and I wonder if it's any good? It seems like a 3D remake of Rocket Knight Adventures for the Sega Genesis, which I loved a lot, but after digging further, it seems more like a sequel to Rocket Knight Adventures or Sparkster. Nonetheless, it seems fun to play from what I could see. I wish they remade more of the old tracks, though, like the flight level track which was awesome, and is now sadly gone :(  https://youtube.com/watch?v=Lzu47G1ooWg]original[/url]). Overall the music seems nice, though.

Here is the Sega Genesis game, for comparison:

It looks fun, and it reminds me of Metal Slug for some reason...

It's not as intense as Metal Slug nor Contra. It's closer in style to Mario, I would say, but with some beat-em-up mechanics.
