Early info on Epic Mickey 2 for the 3DS!
*Developed by DreamRift, a veteran developer of 2D platformers for the DS
*Subtitle is Power of Illusion
*Follow-Up to Castle of Illusion for the Sega Gensesis
*Each level is based on a Disney movie
*Will feature hand-drawn sprites with extensive parallax scrolling backgrounds.
*By tapping the item icons exist in every level, you'll be able to "paint" (trace) those items into existence, including cliffs, cannons, and floating platforms.

Sometimes you'll need to erase objects, which is done by spreading thinner. Again, the stylus comes into play here.
*The Queen from Snow White is the antagonist
*There will be worlds from all eras of Disney, From Peter Pan to Tangled
*There is a Hub level of sorts, where rescued characters appear
