We are still waiting on a suitable Amiga AGA emulator with robust recording features before tackling such games.

Player's Review
This game is known as Mickey mania on other platforms. The playstation version is mostly the same but it is not a direct port and a lot of the gfx were redrawn and extended for this version of the game and maybe part of the reason for the name change. It was also released exclusively as PAL release.
There is some really nice parallax scrolling going on in some levels as well as a little 3d added just to make sure you know you are playing a playstation game. The music isn't bad but the 16 bit console music was better in my opinion and matches more closely to this style of 2d game. It was also similar for SegaCD where a lot of orchestrated sound tracks sounded out of place in a 2d platform game amongst others.. The only real turn off in the game is the lengthy loading times. You would think a 2d platformer that was just a couple of megabits large on the 16 bit machines would take so long to load just a small chunk of the game at any one time.
I play the game on Hard difficulty and try to collect as many stars as I can. Not because i need them, but more to show where they are although there were a few that seemed out of bounds to me and didn't spend any time trying to get them and moved on. I have tried to show any hidden areas and in the case of the first chapter allows for warping past the crane boss. After showing the hidden area I cut back to completing the level properly (which i added after completing the game, so marbles wont match up when it cuts back to level 2)
The final level was a little annoying with weasels everywhere and i guess I could have just jumped and bypassed most em saving some time in the longplay but I got caught up with shooting everything. Its a good version of the game with reasonable length which makes a nice change to the usual 3-4 hour my psx longplays end up being.
