The newest level in Hotline Blox offers a different character, Daniels, with a different moveset, but more importantly he has different masks available to him. After full comboing the level once with each mask, the highest score I got was with Allen. That said, I didn't want to just get rid of the footage I had with the other masks, so I'm uploading that footage here, albeit without editing anything in post. And yes, I usually play this game with no music so I can add music after post. (If the BGM was actually good music like in Hotline Miami 2 instead of stock garbage, maybe I wouldn't do this, but it is, so I am.)

ADDITIONAL NOTES:
It's Daniels, from Hotline Miami 2! (He even has the white bandanna that Daniels had that obscured his face in Hotline Miami 2 proper!) If you don't remember, he was one of the four members of the elite special forces fireteam, the Ghost Wolves, which The Soldier (aka Beard, aka the guy who gives all those freebies to Jacket after every level in Hotline Miami 1) and Jacket were a part of. In Hotline Miami 2, he's last seen checking on the fourth member of the Ghost Wolves, Barnes, who was torn in half by an explosion in a power plant that's actively melting down; he's not mentioned again in Hotline Miami 2 and is presumably KIA. I'm glad to see that in this interpretation of Hotline Miami 2's events, Daniels survives, even though he seems to have lost contact with Jacket and The Soldier, and appears to have fallen for the 50 Blessings meme, exactly as Jacket did.
Daniels' base moveset appears to be based on Jake from Hotline Miami 2, down to being a fat character (though Daniels was also fat in Hotline Miami 2) and even exclusively being right handed, as compared to the ambidexterity that nearly the rest of the Hotline Miami playable cast exhibit (another sign to me the developer is a die-hard fan of Hotline Miami 2).
Daniel's 50 Blessings-issue mask appears to be based on an ant. His other masks are just recolored ant masks.
The default mask, "Daniels", offers no special abilities; in that regard it's kind of like the Richard mask from Hotline Miami 1.
"Paul" offers lethal throws, turning Daniels into a one-to-one facsimile to Jake. (Although when Paul is equipped, thrown objects that hit an enemy will keep travelling and hit more enemies until drag brings it to a stop, which functions a lot more like the Jake mask did in Hotline Miami 1).
"Allen" is not equipped in this video (because it's the one I got a high score with and I'll upload that in a later video proper), but is based on Tony from Hotline Miami 2 (and I guess also The Son's Dirty Hands technique - but who even equips Dirty Hands when playing as the son?) It grants lethal punches, but in return the player cannot pick up weapons of any kind.
"Dan" starts with a suppressed pistol that holds 12 rounds in the mag, similar to The Henchman's gimmick in Hotline Miami 2. It is only unlocked after beating Call In once. (I'd wager it's also the reason the first and second floors have exactly 12 enemies combined - make sure to retain your Assassin's Cred and don't miss a shot!)
