>Not only that, but the jump action here feels quit a bit ahead of its time. You have a lot of control over protagonist Flicky, and can even twist through the air to reverse her direction. Which was pretty much unheard of in a 1984 video game. We generally look to Super Mario Brothers as the origin of truly excellent jump mechanics, but Flicky debuted nearly a year-and-a-half before Super Mario, and up until that game shipped, Nintendo was still dealing in stiff, standard Mario Brothers style jump physics. And to that point it's worth mentioning that Flicky appeared on SG-1000 within a few months of its arcade debut. Sega clearly knew they had something great here and were quick to capitalize on it.
