A solid sequel to the first one, which already was good. Only gripes are some of the platforming can be insane with jumps but the checkpoints are merciful. Just be careful when jumping is all :)

Bullet Point Review
PROS
- Showcases a significant step up in creativity in all facets of its design
- Exploring outer space and collecting upgrades is satisfying
- Levels have much more variety this time around, you never quite know what to expect when touching down on a new planet
CONS
- Audio is just as bad as in the first game; my ears are still bleeding …
PROS

CONS
- Audio is just as bad as in the first game; my ears are still bleeding
- Countering mechanic feels weird and is little more than a glorified QTE
- Mediocre boss fights that you have to defeat multiple times
- Terrible final level makes getting the good ending almost not worth it
- Increases emphasis on story to very little success
- Sensitive fall damage, which was a minor problem in the first game, is absolutely infuriating this time around. Note to game designers: the threshold for fall damage should be more than one pixel higher than your character's jump.
