Ah, the summer of ‘87 where I spent $7.50 on this game at the mall, in one afternoon. My parents had a fit!

In my humble opinion the second ever "the sequel better than the original" video game since Ms. Pacman.

[@captainbeastazoid7084]

Amazing game. Better than the original and the original was great

[@teeman9266]

This is so 80s..

[@yellowblanka6058]

Not surprising considering it was released in 1986, lol.

I think they just randomly threw the kitchen sink at this game in an attempt to make it "better" than the original, but without any direction. Sometimes "more" isn't better. I think the biggest addition for the sequel should have been left and right scrolling in the levels similar to defender. Adding different levels was a good idea, but I think they needed a more cohesive design instead of being so random. I also don't think the ability to transform into a Pegasus was a good addition, it was just too much of a pain in the rear to use it and I think a powerup system would have been a better addition. I don't think Joust 2 is a bad game, but it is a bad sequel IMO and it isn't surprising that it didn't sell very well.

It was a bit difficult. Everything kills you. And eggs falling into water become nutty shadow lords

[@doug8171]

does it just loop no ending?

[@captainsonic]

Yes, it just goes on forever. There's no ending.
