Huge leap ahead
The first game was simple and entertaing, this one? Huge improvement in every way. Gamewplay resembles more of a metroidvania, except that zones are mostly linear and there are not many bosses, but don't think for a second this is a bad game. The art got a huge bump, music is fantastic, gameplay is deceively simple, but to get al those pesky secrets you are gonna need to master all your traversing tools, which, by the way, can be csutomized for different effects, including a "fate engine" that is basically a customizable difficulty setting, There´s a good variety of biomes, enemies and enviromental hazards to keep you on your toes. On the performance side it works flawlessly, except for that one bug I encountered near the end where I couldn't use the tubes to go back to town so I had to travel to the one closest to town and climb up manually, a bit annoying, but not game breaking. Great game, absolutely recommended if you liked the first one or just metroidvanias in general since it has some of that DNA in it.
