A rubbish platformer where your jump is over a screen high. Anyway before anyone actually notices the sprites being a bit dodgy, this is how its like both ingame and the ROM sadly enough. It is even noticeable when you play it and your character is in front of a rotating background changing the colour of its eyes to match the background. Here are some GensKMod screen shots for proof:

My guess is that whoever did the sprites used a black background and when converted to the Genesis, they accidentally mixed the black with the first colour that is usually reserved as a background colour ending up deleting some pixels of the character. Norman luckily enough doesn't suffer from this problem due to that the sprite used a different black in the palette. I wonder how they got away of not noticing this...
If the game was good, I would have done a patch to fix this problem but from playing the game it seems that the graphics aren't the only thing that needs fixing.

Infamously hard game that obviously can't get very far at all.
