This is a clone of Burrito Bison, flaws included. A decent game, but if you've played Burrito Bison, this is not going to keep you interested. There was even a nearly identical sequel to Burrito Bison. Couple that with BB's ridiculously long upgrade time, and chances are you're sick to death of this game.
The only change I can tell really is the randomized ability upgrades, which actually worked out really poorly for my play through. I kept getting glider upgrades which I couldn't really use because they were too high up, and I could almost never reach them, likely due to the fact that I didn't have enough of the other upgrades.
A decent game, but it's been done before and already beaten to death IMO.
