A decently fun little puzzle platformer with charming characters and a neat fantastical setting. It carries the high quality I expect from The Chinese Room when it comes to naturalistic or interesting voice acting.

Although not as tightly paced as the first game, it goes all out with more enemies and a new weapon type. An explosive expansion to Doom 1 with levels that are intricate, tricky, and crank up the intensity.

Very similar to the first game, carrying over the great tunes and charming character designs, while introducing a few new mechanics that build on the foundation the first game laid. The level design is a bit more streamlined, with fewer awkward or frustrating moments, but the reuse of levels for additional challenges feels noticeable.

There is a novelty to the gimmick of grabbing enemies for double jumps or attacks, but it's ultimately quite a simple platformer with a rather uneven difficulty curve to its various challenges. The music is good and the character designs are cute.

I think the most accurate thing I can say about the game is that it's just very nice in all respects, and a very impressive effort for a solo dev. It's got lots of fun platforming and puzzles, tons of fantastical creatures that are well-animated with neat little interactions, and very nice-looking ethereal environments.
