COOL. I like the graphics, animation, overall visual style. The gameplay is cool, totally oldschool super hard. I have a couple suggestions though. It would be cool if the bug could crawl or something while he is crouching, and I think you should get rid of some of the anticipation frames on the jump so it's more immediate. Maybe tweak the jumping a little... MAKE A SEQUEL PLEASE :D
I think it has the makings of a great game, but you should tweak it more, do something about the shooting system and the collision detection seems a bit off, and the old school two-hits-then-you're-dead system is kinda lame, and I need savestates or something please.
I don't know what you have planned for enemies but flying ones would be really neat, and yeah the snail shell is perfect for spider bowling, it is a game in and of itself.
First I want to say I agree with all the positive feedback above, this is an awesome sequel, I reaally dig the background art and new animations, and now for the critique:
1. something that bugged me from the first game was the fact that FP's hair and face weren't filled in with color, maybe fill it in with white or something.
2.some weird enemies with crazy attacks like a penguin with a rocket on his back and sharks with lasers and trolls that shoot their toenail clippings at you. Just more variety I guess.
Love the graphics and effects, particles, debris, explosions, screen shake, sound fx very slick! Does get a bit repetitive though. Needs giant ridiculous bosses and more enemy variety, maybe some different level layouts. VERY GOOD.
