Cheesy

Cheesy the rhino. No, that's not right. 
Cheesy the baboon. Nope.
Cheesy the Duck-billed platypus.
You know, somebody had so much fun giving this new character a name, they almost forgot to give him a game. 

By the skin of his rodent incisors, Cheesy the Mouse (couldn't have thought of a more appropriate name if we tried) kind of slumps into some kind of platforming role. Whatever his creators were thinking at the time, the categories marked 'original' and 'ground-breaking' were not among those recognised as worthwhile. However, 'successful formula' and '3D' would seem to have been flashing in neon.

Popular opinion is that Cheesy is an okay mouse. We're reserving judgement until next issue, and finished cheddar code on CD.
