I’d say that if you liked the first one, you’ll like this one. It is a prequel that takes place in the same tower, so while the levels are different, the enemies and look is very similar.
I’d say the biggest change is that now you need to travel back and forth between levels (you get items on one level that opens things up on other levels). Bonus, if you can’t find a secret on a level, you can always come back later.
This also means it isn’t quite as linear as before. I think it may be a bit easier than the first, but I’m not entirely sure about that and I haven’t finished it so we’ll see what they throw at us at the end. If it is easier, it is probably due to the fact that you can choose between multiple avenues at the same time.
Here is a list of improvements from the steam forums:
- Improved gameplay and performance.
- Expanded RPG system (we have minions now :wink: ).
- New hero with her own storyline taking place just before the start of Vaporum.
- New levels.
- New boss.
- New lore to discover.
- New puzzle mechanics.
- Special floor with harder puzzles.
- More open exploration and story progress compared to Vaporum.
I like it…
