Yeah this is very easily the best Monkey Ball game since the originals. To be fair the bar is in hell so that's not saying much, but I'm having a blast.
The Spin Dash does turn a lot of stages into "figure what you need to bump into to skip most of the level" and I expect that to be somewhat controversial. Obviously shortcuts and weird bumps to skip sections of levels has always been a thing in Monkey Ball but I guess it feels a little less earned when you have an instant boost button, but man I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy this pseudo-puzzle.
They attempted to combat this with the Golden Banana / Banana Collection missions in each level so you're still "forced" to engage with the regular level design if you wanna 100% the game but I imagine people will care mostly about the time attack missions.
