AWESOME UPDATE 2018-11-14: They gave options for more difficulty settings all separately adjustable for more checkpoints, enemy density, stair assist, and MORE.

While all of the gem routes in the main stages are adequately challenging by the time you reach the end of the game, the real difficulty is in the aptly-named Impossible stages.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
38 of 210 sampled reviews raised it
It's more dynamic, better graphics, MUCH smoother animation now that it's not fps capped (it's running great on a 144hz g-sync monitor), smoother/slicker UI, music is still great, controls feel better.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
21 of 210 sampled reviews raised it
It also has a great deal of customization, and difficulty options, as well as a great soundtrack.
Performance
Players who bring up Performance mostly praise it.
7 of 210 sampled reviews raised it
And about the performance, I haven't had a single problem with the framerate on max settings (my setup: GeForce GTX 1060, i5-4690, 16 GB RAM...).
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
6 of 210 sampled reviews raised it
The keybinds on controller are intuitive and responsive enough, though - I picked them up seamlessly.
