Yeah, it absolutely does. Vectron is still around, and Fen appears in the SWH DLC 'the outsider'. I'd be very surprised if a future SW game didn't bring all of the main characters of Dig, Dig 2 and Heist together at some point.
So I beat the main game yesterday after 6 hours and 41 minutes with 39 deaths and 35% of secrets.
While I really liked the final boss and everything, I'm glad the story part is over with as I can now just look for secrets, level up, very upgrades and 100% all caves.
Truly a very special game and is equal to my enjoyment of Axiom Verge earlier this year.
They also linked to a 33:16 speedrun. Amazing stuff... (Obvious spoiler warning: Don't look at it if you haven't beaten the game.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TpmSVkgFpxY
I am in the bottom of the mine. Lots of sign saying DEATH AHEAD. Should I break open a path down? There is some secret wall on the right that opens from the other side...

Got stuck and died. Seemed to be a path up though, how are you supoosed to reach there? Last major upgrade I got was the Ignition axe. Will I get sonething to be able to reach later?

The game sure ends abruptly and the boss wasn't even that hard, thought it was just a mid boss or something. Didn't even max out my dude. Expected a little more story instead of destroy three generators, then boss and done.
Weird there isn't a post game, starting your save just sends you back right before the boss.

Totally agree with this. I was really enjoying the game ramping up in giving you abilities and throwing challenges your way, but I think it ended a bit anti-climatically. Feels like it really needed one more new area before the final boss.
Yeah, a few more bosses would have been nice, there were really only 3, and one is just a normal enemy. 3-4 more bosses and one new area would have been perfect.
Cool. I just beat the main storyline; I'll go back for the post-game some other time. I -really- enjoyed this, so it'll be nice to have something to check out later. This + Golf Story + Stardew Valley have been good times.
How much do I roughly have left if I am chasing down the three doom machines or whatever? Have done one of them and am very close to the others on the map, but exploration is so much fun. I am hating the acid area though, with the rolling snails and purple shooters that destroy blocks...

in the game after those three machines. Exploration is rewarded at the point where you are now in the game. For example, you will probably find an upgrade that will easily take care of those purple shooters.
I just got to this point yesterday. The Trials are significantly harder than anything else in the game. I expect it will take me several hours of game time actually complete it. It reminds me a little of Champions Road in that sense.

I played it on Vita before getting into SWD2 and was glad I did. I played Steamworld Heist first and found I enjoyed the game world and I really like the vibe of the entire series.
I'm not sure if my game is glitched or if I'm stuck. I'm at the 42/42 artifact thing at the end.
So I did the first section of the trials, with no hookshot or jetpack. I died on the next section, that doesn't allow any jetpack. (There was an instant-kill block that dropped from the ceiling.) I restart at the entrance. Okay, I gotta do them all over again, no big deal.
So I'm back in the entrance for the first trial, with no jetpack and no hookshot. Only, the platforms that launch you up out of the lava have not spawned. There is no exit since we start out in a sealed room, and without hookshot or jetpack, I can't get far at all due to a vertical section that has an overhang on either side - I can't jump to the walls. I need the launchers to spawn. Or jetpack. Or hookshot.
I exited the game and went back in, but it saved at that point. I can't figure out what to do - on the first lap through the launchers were here to take me through, now they're not. What am I supposed to do?
Edit: I killed myself in lava, and I respawn outside the main door, thank goodness. But when I go back in, I'm in the same deathtrap room with no way out other than death by lava.

I got this room first, and have no idea what to do. I haven't even seen platforms coming out of the lava. I just go in and am completely stuck with no way to move forward. That's why I came to this thread completely confused.
