The time has come to go through the PlayStation Classics again. Once again, our featured title this week is a PSOne Classic for the PlayStation 3, PlayStation Portable, and PlayStation Vita. It is also going to be on the PlayStation Classic. It is Jumping Flash!, a game that was not born in a cross-fire hurricane or raised by a toothless, bearded hag. (What, no The Rolling Stones fans")
I?m Jumping Jack Flash!
What do you do if you are an evil genius who wants to make a lot of money and happen to have interstellar technology in your hands" If you are Baron Aloha, you take a peaceful planet and use it to turn a profit. He used his machines to take some particularly choice bits of Crater Planet and turn each one into a resort. Which is a terrible thing to do. The people cry out for a hero, and the Universal City Hall dispatches an agent named Robbit. Robbit is a robotic rabbit who will use his power of hopping to save the day! Really, that is the kind of goofiness you can expect from Jumping Flash! After all, it also happens to be a game where the first major boss is a fire-breathing dragon, Aloha?s minions are aliens called MuuMuus that look a little like squids with palm trees growing out of their heads, and a circus world with clown bosses that could trigger people with Coulrophobia. This is a bright and colorful game that does not take itself seriously.

But it?s all right now
That doesn?t mean you shouldn?t take it seriously, though. Jumping Flash! is notable ...
