You know you wanted her.

You're just too young to understand. At the time, not every game was trying to be a rip-off of Super Mario Bros. They had their own game mechanics, and we accepted that the difficult controls were part of the puzzle element of playing the games.

It was from an era before everyone decided that their game mechanics had to imitate Mario in order to feel quite right.

Retro games had to rely a lot on box art.

One of the old primitive games before everyone started imitating the mechanics of Super Mario Bros. Controls can be fussy. When it's going badly, blaming the controls would be perfectly understandable. When it's going well, it feels like an accomplishment. Feels pretty good when you get the super jump abilities.
