If you like 3D platformers with genuinely original and creative ideas, hilarious and incredibly poignant writing, you should absolutely play this game. You don't need to have played the first one or the VR game, the recap is solid. Most of all, if you can, you should support Double Fine because they're good people going through hell, and this industry needs more developers like them.
Not only do I love this game casually, but it also has one of the coolest, most accessibly speedruns for people new to the hobby! The movement is snappy, the exploits are huge, and the heart is unending.
A fantastic sequel to the cult classic platformer.
