- This one feels even shorter & easier than the first one, but the mechanics are not exactly the same
- There is no more “infinite coins” trick, because coin count is reset when you game over
- But, when you lose a life, you are reset in-place, you don’t even start the level over. So your health meter in total is however many hearts you have x how many lives you have. You never have to git gud, you can always tank everything that gets in your way.
- Like the first game, you get 3 different suits which give 3 different powers. The suit powers are much more interesting than in the first game IMO
- The level design, however, is not so interesting; somehow it feels like you are rewarded less for exploring, which doesn’t make any sense because they removed the timer. If levels have unlimited time now, then why not hide secrets all over the place? What else is even the point of removing the timer?
- I didn’t check who composed this, but the music is still incredible; maybe even more memorable tracks in 2 than there is in 1.
- Little variation in boss fights - they all feel about equal in difficulty to the very first boss
