Pizza Tower updated to add a second playable character

Board 8

What do ya'll compare Pizza Tower to? It looks like a Wario platformer to me which doesn't sell me on it alone, plus I watched part of a speedrun which I recognize is not an adequate way to judge a new game but I wasn't sold on it then either. That said, I have a friend who swears it's my kind of game and that it's doing other good stuff to the point of being in game of the generation-arguments.

No spoilers please, but am I missing what the game is actually like?
