The slam mechanic in the first game kept platforming quick and skillful, allowing you to get back to the action faster by trading speed for time to line up jumps.

The ending couple of levels are entertaining and the music is still bonkers off the charts excellent, but those things alone don't save the game.

Visuals: This game does have a lot more detailed backgrounds than the first, as there are actual layers and depth to the background, which looks very appealing.
