Ristar - found a new-old fun game

Found a gem of a game today. One that I have actually had for a few years in my library
of games.  The game is Ristar by Sega, for the Sega Genesis.  This game is can also be found on the At@Games 80 and 81 game consoles.  Additionally for the Steam platform. Ristar plays as a 2D side scrolling platform, similar to games like Commander Keen, Super Mario, and Sonic the Hedgehog series of video games.  I'm not sure what found appealing about a star with legs and stretchy arms, but it was fun.

Intro and game play that someone has recorded can be found here:

Ristar's main ability is to reach out and grab things with his stretchy arms.
He can use them to grab onto handholds, pick up and throw objects, grab and hurl enemies,
or climb up poles and vertical walls.  Ristar can also swim, swing and hurl himself. 
Just a fun game and recommend [thumbs up!].
