Would it be possible...?

I was looking at Torque 2D recently and it got me on something of a retro kick. So yesterday I was playing Vectorman and thought to myself "Good lord, this game has a nice feel/pace." (The animation is pretty sweet too, especially compared to others from "back in the day".) Would it be possible to create such a sidescroller using Torque 2D? Was it all in the design? Or does the "feel" of Vectorman stem from something Torque 2D can't recreate?

From what i recall of Vectorman (played it once years ago on a emulator) there is nothing about Vectorman that could not be recreated on Torque2D ... would just require a lot of frames of animation to get that much movement out of it. Not an expert though ...

Or if it's procedurally animated you could write your own little renderer to get the same effect as the original.
