Absolutely ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ stellar game in terms of narrative, game play, and music. Offers a good fair challenge.

Good Game

A more arcadey version of the first game. Although it currently doesn't touch very much more on the story, keeping it's mysterious atmosphere, this is a similar sequel in the same vain as Hotline Miami 2 was to Hotline Miami.

It subtly improves the graphics while remaining true to it's minimalist art style. Grab it on sale.

I feel like I ran into an abnormal amount of glitchyness in regards to grapple mechanic which everyone says is very smooth, I must disagree. Which isn't to say it was terrible but my grapple would break off sometimes while I was still holding on to the surface. Ending was nice but I find the overall story lacking. It's alright.

An amazing follow-up to the game that tugged all of our hearts. Lived up to all my expectations and more. I can't wait to see what else Freebird Studios brings us in the future.

Thot Simulator 2
I recommend people play this game and its predacessor for the same reason I'd recommend someone watch The Room, because it's terrible and ridiculous. I want more and hope for a third game. Nothing else can make me this special brand of annoyed.

tl;dr: it is an overall very fun beat'em game, but I recommend getting it on sale. Better with a controler.
Pros:
-New and old villians to fight
-Fun, fluid, combat
-Literally an entire game mechanic for punching bad guys in the face, it's hilarious to nonstop right hook.
-Funny dialoge, although can get repetitive.
-Can unlock cool flashy combos that deal lots of damage.
-Ultimate Spiderman is the best
-Many challenges that gives you motivation to replay it if you are one of those people.
-Character bios for beating missions on Normal, helps you get to understand characters a bit more.

Neutral:
-Most of 2099's villians are just future versions of current ones.
-Most levels take between 30-45 minutes to complete
-Some challenges aren't really "challenges"
-They constantly refer to murderous twisted freaks from old timey carnivals as "geeks". I find this funny but I believe this is poor wording.

Cons:
-Noir Spiderman can be total ass:
-The atmosphere of stealth and feeling like a sneaky badass is totally ruined whenever you take out someone. You typically loadly bash them against surfaces, typically right next to other baddies, instead of silently take them out.
-Lighting constantly changes for no reason.
-I found that gansters field of view was really inconsistant. At times I could stand right in front of them and not be noticed, but then I'd be in the dark very far away and then get noticed.
-For some reason they made it so Noir does not have the ability to disarm enemies, despite him certaintly needing it the most.

-Very reptetitive "rescue civilians" missions that don't really make sense sometimes. Villians who work for Alchemex will take their own scientists hostage.
-Alternate Spider Suits are all terrible looking and not worth it, albeit I only have seen up to the teir 2.
-Sheild enemies are simply unfun to fight unless you're 2099.
-Occasionally a glitch where doors won't open which results in having to restart, however this only happened twice.
-Boss battles sometimes take a while which results in the same repetitive dialoge from bad guys that just gets kinda annoying.
-At the end of each mission you get a rank (bronze, silver, or gold) in three categories then you get an average. 2 Silver + 1 Bronze averages to Silver yet 2 Gold + 1 Silver averages out to Silver.

Despite these cons I do recommend getting the game, I had an overall fun time with it.

The most innovative shooter I've played in years. If you're looking at this game you probably already know the genreal premise of it, pretty graphics and time only moves when you do. I've had a lot of fun with this game and it also makes for a fun game to play with a bunch of people over. Many people complain about the lack of content in this game. If you play beyond the base story mode then I have to disagree, there are many challenge modes that are pretty fun to do as well as endless modes where you jsut keep fighting red dudes. I'd say Endless Mode: Bridge alone is worth the $25. So if you're looking into buying this game, so for it, you will have a lot of fun.

I can't really judge this from a gameplay perspective because this was the first platformer I've played since I was young so I don't know what makes a platformer good. All I know is that I wanted to kill myself at multiple points, mostly the last level, but I don't know if that's because the platforms are greased or if I'm just terrible. Probably the second one. Didn't like the ending one bit, very lacking. Wouldn't say this is worth $10, as it is very short with only five levels.

But this is a cute game that supports multiple cat organizations, charities, etc. The fact that the cats in the game exist in real life is also really nice and charming. Easter eggs made me laugh and the dialoge was nice.

I like cats a lot.
