Despite being "Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts", it really feels like a step back. The biggest thing is not being able to shoot up and down, but a lot of other things weigh the experience down too. In previous entries you're constantly clawing forwards, not going too quickly you run straight into danger, but not hanging around in one place and getting overwhelmed. While the second level is the biggest offender, the game has a lot more sections where you're just waiting around for things to happen, it feels like it doesn't respect your time nearly as much. Also wasn't really a fan of what the double jump added to the experience. It's a shame, I really wanted to like this more with how much I enjoyed Ghouls 'n Ghosts.
