Writing as I listen:
It's nice and happy, the melody sounds almost Japanese. I don't like the silly sound effects that all over the track. I think the snare is a bit to loud and a bit loose, needs tightening up a bit. I also think you could do with adding some more layers to the bass because it's quite weak and plucky.
That bouncy section is really really good.
Over all I think it flows really well but personally I'd change the few things I pointed out. It's a track to be proud of, really nice work.

Thanks for the feedback dude, i will go back to the track and make adjustments now, its good to get another person's point of view.
As for the sound effects, its all about the 8 bit thing but i have to admit, listening again, a bit over the top!!
Any more comments would be more than welcome and i'll re-up the track with ajustments made!
Thankyou for responding, ive posted this on several sites and only had one reply!!

I am no producer, but I gotta say that this one sounds good.
Sounds like some Nintendo game music. Actually love the melody.
And, like Mortis, I fancy the bouncy part.

What Mortis said.
I think the track needs a much touger kick and bass personally. The track needs more low end overall really too. The lead is dominant but it should be the kick followed by the bass.
Nice track though mate!

i agree with mortis...the bass is pretty weak...the 8 bit fxs are kind of annoying...
the track isnt bad though..keep at it
the clap/snare sounds a little bit to dominent imo...the snare for the snare rolls could do with a bit of tightening up..bitta eq and compression should sort that
