I’m playing through it now but I’m not enjoying it as much as the first one. I’m not sure if it’s my fault for not being able to give it the time and attention it requires.

You need the next piece of equipment, so you go to where the robot says it is. “Oh no we need a different piece of equipment to get there first. I’ve marked it on your map”. Cool ok. “Looks like to get that piece of equipment we need to craft this new piece first”. OK. “Looks like we need a special material so let’s go-”

At a certain point you forget what you wanted to do in the first place and just start following the next marker.

I love the world and the wackiness of it all, but I’m not enjoying the actual gameplay loop nearly as much as I did the first one.

I really liked the first one. For those who haven’t heard of it, it’s a weird platformer/collect-a-thon where you play as a spaceman (or a spacedog, funnily enough) scouting potentially livable planets for a ruthless company.

The first one was a bit undercooked, but the whole game was better than the sum of its parts. I’m curious to see if the sequel improved on the original.

For some reason, the game is still pending on GoG despite having released yesterday on Steam. I wish developers stopped the second-class citizen of their GoG users. I can understand small dev teams doing a staggered release for multiplatform games, but the game’s already on Steam, and GoG is just another PC storefront… I don’t understand.

I’m actually enjoying it a lot. The “you dropped everything when you died” thing is getting annoying though.

The first looked good but they sold themselves so is a big nope for me
