Well I've been playing it for about 2 hours and it's an interesting premise, retribution against the entities you were powerless against in the original. But I would like to point out, that I think the creators of this spinoff completely misunderstood the squid dog. The squid dog isn't supposed to be a villain or hostile. The squid dog is helping you in the original Changed. Those aren't the squid dog's tentacles that are following you around the screen and attacking you, because they're not attached to him, he's isolated in the middle and they're not connected, and you are helpless to do anything to them so the way you win the battle is by getting the squid dog to destroy the tentacles for you, because he'll smack them if they move into his reach. The squid dog never does nothin' to you but help you. All he does is lie around in the middle of the playing field petting the tiger shark like a weirdo but trying to be helpful to you.
