Electronic Super Joy 2 is a relentlessly energetic precision platformer built around speed, repetition, music, and a willingness to throw increasingly ridiculous obstacles at the player. Developed by Michael Todd Games and published by 2&30 Software, it embraces the idea that failure should be frequent but recovery should be quick. Rather than disguising its difficulty, the game makes demanding platforming its central attraction, creating levels filled with hazards that require careful timing, memorization, and increasingly confident control. The basic movement is straightforward enough to understand, but the level design quickly transforms simple running and jumping into elaborate sequences of dangerous terrain, missiles, enemies, and other environmental threats. The satisfaction comes from learning these sequences through repeated attempts. A section that initially appears chaotic gradually becomes understandable as the player recognizes where hazards appear and how much momentum is required for each maneuver. This creates the familiar precision-platforming rhythm of failing, learning, improving, and eventually completing a difficult sequence almost automatically. There are mor…

Electronic Super Joy 2 is a brutally difficult platformer that somehow manages to make failing over and over feel pretty entertaining. I am running through strange neon levels, jumping over hazards, dodging missiles, smashing enemies and trying to reach the end without getting killed. The game is very much built around fast reactions, but I never feel like I am just playing the same level repeatedly because the stages keep introducing new ideas. There are more than 55 levels, a world map to move around and plenty of secrets and alternate routes to find. The movement is easily the best part for me. I get a fairly small set of abilities, but the levels do a lot with them. I have to jump, stomp, fly and move through sections where the timing can get extremely tight. Later on, the game starts throwing giant enemies, missiles, lasers and other hazards at me, so I have to react quickly while also remembering the layout of the level. The checkpoints are placed often enough that dying does not completely ruin my progress, which is important because I die a lot. It feels like the game wants me to learn each section instead of simply hoping that I get lucky. The soundtrack is a huge part o…

I ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ HATE THOSE STUPID HOMING FROG ENEMIES STUPID ENEMY I HATE IT

An incredible game that refuses to take itself seriously all whilst having very enjoyable platforming gameplay. If you like wacky stories and brutal platformers, this one definitely is for you. I should also say that for the game being FREE, it isn't half-baked at all and delivers a satisfying experience throughout (keep in mind I still haven't finished it though). Pros include: -Smooth gameplay+ movement -Fully-fledged, original soundtrack (PLEASE do check out EnV) -Runs well on any device (setting my potato pc as a baseline) -A sh1t ton of pink -Moaning sounds (which can be disabled btw) -Satan -Butts -Uuuuuuuuuuhhhhhh also barry who is afraid of cows Cons: -F##K homing missiles

I like difficult games but this one starts pretty hard right away. I guess I either don't want to push myself too much or the game is simply too frustrating for its difficulty curve. Plus, these moaners are so annoying and sensational... so cheap (I know I can turn them off in the settings but this doesn't change the fact of how cheap they sound). The gameplay is actually good and the music too, my only problem is the difficulty curve. If the game started a bit easier and the difficulty was more gradual, I'd gladly play it. Especially if the whole atmosphere thing were a bit more mature too.
