Hey, this is back! This is probably my favourite co-op game ever made, and definitely the best platformer: the check-points are generous, it's fairly simple for you to revive your partner (they can move their death bubble, but you have to hit them), there are no lives so you aren't sitting around while a much better player is doing all the fun stuff and most importantly this all means that when you smack around the other player and/or kill them it isn't a supreme dick move like in something like New Super Mario bros- sort of easy and satisfying to do, but it doesn't cripple the other player. Really the co-op is masterfully designed in a genre where co-op tends to be really one sided or makes you just hemmorage lives (Donkey Kong Country Returns, while it's otherwise excellent, has co-op that's imbalanced at best and flat out impossible in some stages like the K levels or the factory level with the platforms based on wall switches).
