Gameplay

Same as the first game, but with the added benefit of holding one of the weapons (sword, boomerang, gun) at all times. You don't lose it when hit as in the first game.

4 / 5

Level Design

I debated about dropping this down to 3 because the levels feel smaller and more random than the first game. There's less platforming and more focus on combat and avoiding projectiles. I like it less than some similar games, but it's still better than average. It keeps the mid-level vehicular stages which I love.

Theme

Same same. Kid Dracula vs an angry cherub and his assassin friends.

4 / 5

Art Style

Again, I was tempted to drop this down to 3. Most of the enemy sprites and backgrounds are shaded, making your characters and the bosses look like they're from a different game. The shading has an ugly, dithering look to it. The graphics are still better than average, but I much prefer the clean pizel artwork of the original.

4 / 5

Audio

The music is improved over the original. It's still lively but annoying this time around.
