Had no idea this was in early access already. I didn't particularly like how the first one played. The concept sounds nice on paper, you gather these spirit thingies and they attack for you, but in practice I found it felt very sluggish, or at least very "slow". Level and boss design, as well as the music, were top notch though, would've loved to have finished it for that, but sadly I just didn't click with the gameplay.

Hope they find great success with this and then make something I'd actually wanna play next :3

So quick? Busy devs. Ender Lilies was decent. Like a 7'ish type of game. If its an improvement cool, why not.

Tagging PanzerCute since I know that you mentioned in a previous thread that you've enjoyed the first game, Ender Lilies, a great deal.

I'll probably jump on it as well once they announce the details for the physical release in the west, and in case they don't do one I'll grab the Asian/JP release from either PlayAsia or Amazon JP.

The first one was very nice.

I bought the first ages ago and completely forgot about it, guess that's what i'm going to play on the weekend.

Seems early access is very positive

Thanks man! Yeah I bought the first one on release day and I fell in love with it :d

Can't wait to play this sequel!

First one kept putting me to sleep.

I felt betrayed by the metroidvania community for hyping EL so much. Pass

A physical release has been announced for Japan. Hopefully, they'll also do one for the EU, NA, and the rest of the world.
