Better than Episode I by a long shot, fixing many of the problems it had. Music is good too, with the XPand!2 and Vacuum synthesizers. Runs great on EndeavourOS, as well.

It is somewhat decent. I do not like this game but it does have some moments, and it is an insane improvement over the abysmal Episode I. If you get it for cheap, might be worth giving it a try. That being said, I would recommend pretty much any other Dimps game besides Episode 1 and Gens3DS if you want some good 2D Sonic that isnt just the classic formula. The Advance and Rush series are qui excellent.
