One of my old time favorites. I came back to replay this classic. Nice, open worlds, variety of explorable and attainable goals, and the music. All 15 levels have their own unique track. What licensed third party game does that?! Probably it was a better time back then. Game's not perfect of course. It's got that pin-point accurate jumping mechanic that forces you to start aaaaall the way back should you fuck up even once which is alright if most of the obstacle courses weren't vertical with zero shortcuts to pepper in between (not really a fault of the era but still an egregious example for its time). And if it wasn't the paper thin platforms bothering you, it was the atrocious camera. Boss fights are also pretty lame and straightforward albeit the weakest part of an exploration-based game so whatever.
Love this game and still play it every now and then. Actually, a lot of the N64/PS1-era Disney tie-in games were pretty good.
