the good is that it's an all-around improvement on 1 - very cool-looking pre-rendered bosses, good overall improvements to the depth - usual shmup sequel steps. the bad is that this game leans full-on into the bullet hell style that the original microscopically dipped its toe into, but it still has firepower and an overall gamefeel that's tailored for classic shmup antics. Also a bit too hard imo, and not in ways that make me really wanna sink my teeth in and practice.
