The game requires you to SS (ie. Clear all dust with full combo w/o getting hit or falling into a pit; it's actually quite lenient in terms of the time before combo runs out) some levels in order to unlock the further levels of a specific area. Meat boy doesn't do this so you can essentially truck through the game at your own pace. Dustforce makes you try to learn how to efficiently complete a level.
So if you like going at your own pace and don't want to spend time trying to beat a level efficiently, this game offers quite little.
An area typically has around 4-5 regular levels. There are then 3 or 4 unlockable (silver doors) levels that you get from SSing the regular levels. Then there are 2-3 more levels (gold doors) that you get from SSing the silver doors.
The regular doors are the levels that you can easily clear. Silver doors require a little more concentration to survive through. Gold doors are your SMB levels. The game does give you checkpoints as well so that helps if you just want to clear a stage and be done with it.
