Bonkers Wax Up! is an action game that was first released on the Sega Game Gear in 1994.
+ Non-linear stage design is respectable, and the radar is super helpful for pointing you towards the next collectable pickle.+ Slide attack is handy if you suddenly encounter an enemy, and the game affords you multiple hits to aid progression.
- Action is mind-numbingly repetitive with only a short mine-cart section for variety, and the bosses are unimaginative.
- Game engine feels like it's always struggling to keep up, with constant sound, sprite and HUD glitches.
- Frame-rate is wildly inconsistent, and the abrupt speed changes are a nightmare when attempting precision platforming.
- Controls are dreadful and cheap hits are abundant due to your inability to adjust in mid-air when stomping.
- Collision detection is equally as frustrating and you'll often find yourself jumping straight through items with no response.
