Joe Danger 2: The Movie

Thanks Sean, game is fun like other motorcycle games. Lots of fun for everyone to play including my mother whom was recently rendered blind. 7/10 my dad likes team fortress 2 player model :0)

There's really weird pacing of levels and delayed introduction of mechanics (and one costume (maybe more?) rooted in cultural appropriation), but the core of Joe Danger 2 is just incredible fast paced runner(?) levels. There's a ton of depth to the mechanics and nailing the timing feels so good, but it's also a lot of fun to just focus on finishing levels without regard for the extra challenges. The action movie, stunt man setting is really well suited for the game, but I certainly see how it could wear on some people over the course of the game.

A competent sequel that builds on what made the first one great, although with an overall decrease in difficulty. The settings are more diverse in this one, which I personally didn't care for too much – it's not an outright bad thing, but I enjoyed the more focussed and streamlined nature of part one. Nonetheless, if you liked the first one you'll probably like the second one as well.
Had no issues with it on Windows 10 or the Steam Deck, which seems like a lucky break judging by some recent reviews.

"Joe Danger 2: The Movie" takes the excitement of the original game to new heights with even more action-packed levels, creative challenges, and adrenaline-fueled gameplay.
In this sequel, Joe Danger returns as the world's most daring stuntman, but this time, he's taking on Hollywood with a series of blockbuster-style movie sets. From high-speed chases to epic boss battles, each level offers a unique and thrilling experience that will keep you hooked from start to finish.
The gameplay remains as addictive as ever, with tight controls and responsive mechanics that make pulling off tricks and maneuvers a breeze. Whether you're racing against the clock, collecting stars, or performing death-defying stunts, there's never a dull moment in "Joe Danger 2."
One of the standout features of the game is its variety of vehicles and costumes, which add a fun and quirky element to the gameplay. From riding a unicycle through a circus-themed level to soaring through the sky in a jetpack, each vehicle offers its own set of challenges and surprises.
Pros:
* Action-packed gameplay with a variety of challenges

Quick text review:
Want to speed through a full loop on unicycle?
-Nice cartoony style and a pretty 2.5D viewpoint (Although this view can cause some eye itch at first) but the second title is more stimulating with added settings (Caves, snow etc.) and Joe Danger 1 mostly stuck with ACME deserts and spectating crowds
-OK music, Joe Danger 1 has the superior 70s game show music, and the second title has the decent scenario tracks (Spy music for the spy movie levels for instance) that feel a bit less distinct
-No story really... no dialogue either really
-Gameplay is the meat of the game. Plays like the trials games I assume (I never played any of those games) except less realistic I'm guessing (The review thumbnail wasn't just a joke: Joe survives due to the sometimes-forgiving physics)
-The focus is more on completing objectives on the levels rather than just surviving them: collect these stars, collect these letters, complete the level in one continuous combo etc. in order to earn level stars and the harder level medals that can be earned on some levels by achieving all of the level stars in one try (Unlocks a nice costume as well on occasion, the second game has all 9 team fortress 2 class available from the start I believe)
-Joe Danger 1 is more hardcore in this respect, more demanding, with more stars to earn and probably requiring more perfection. Joe Danger 2 is a bit more fun (More vehicles too) and laid-back as the medal levels usually have fewer stars to earn in one run and I think I actually completed it at like half the time I played the first game (Which I gave up on later on because of frustration) but maybe that makes for a purer experience.
-But I argue that both games complement one another and that purchasing the bundle will offset some of the cost of the second game with the first titles bulk and challenge yet inject more of the second title's fun and variety
-Samescreen multiplayer (Versus racing) having up to 4 players on the same screen at once (I like it but it's quite an overwhelming experience to throw your uninitiated friends into as my test with friends had mixed results)
Practical concerns:
-OK value for money for me (R5.30/ $0.50/ £0.34 per hour of gameplay) - opting for the bundle with both games can offset the cost
-Quite small download size (Takes up 818.52 Mb on the harddrive)
-Fairly easy to run
-Mostly kid friendly (May cause some eye itch initially and two costumes may be problematic)

W - Game
Only downside is the DLC is needed for 100% achievements and 4 achievements from the dlc do not pop anyway.
