Surpasses the first one. It's a fun metroidvania, with good combat, humour and challenging platforming.

+ Keeping the same formula from the first game but adding more stuff
+ Various costumes(characters) with different attributes
+ Pollo Power (chicken transformation) is now much more usable and fun
+ Plenty of references from various movies/games, like screens or mini-games with elements taken from Mario and Street Fighter for example

- No workshop integration like the first game
- Some abilities/costumes can be very overpowereds

I did everything on one playthrough.
There is plenty of achievements with specific challenges and others related to doing everything on the game.
Both DLC are required and there are no missables (besides beating the game on Hard difficulty). Hard Mode can unlocked by beating the game or by doing the Konami Code at the title screen.

It's not a very demanding game. I haven't experienced any slowdown!
Also, I played using this mod DualShock 4 (PS4) Button Prompts [www.nexusmods.com] with Special K
