PixelJunk™ Eden 2

Initial impressions after ~1hr of play: - The game mechanic in the original Eden is light years better than Eden 2. Not sure what the game designers were thinking, Eden 2 would have been a home run if they'd just used the original Eden with more levels. - Jumping is hit-n-miss with a controller, you don't really know where you're going to end up when you start hitting buttons while swinging. In the first Eden you knew where you were going and could time your swing and cutting loose. In Eden 2, its all very unpredictable and the grimp gets pulled in bizarre directions. - The timer is a massive pain and makes the game unenjoyable. You have to find checkpoints to extend the timer and that timer goes down *quickly*. The original Eden mechanic of gathering gems to extend your "energy" bar was so much better because you could get those much easier. Now its like "where the f*ck is the next checkpoint". - I refunded Eden 2 once but decided to buy it again. Maybe this will grow on me but I'm not hopeful.

Switchなどで発売されていたゲームがSteamでも遊べるようになって、嬉しいです！ 世界観は相変わらず綺麗でわくわくします。グリンプ達も可愛いですよ スマホゲーム「Eden Obscura」に近い感じでしょうか。 初代「PixelJunk Eden」とは少し操作が違う+追加点に注意です。（私は慣れるのに時間かかりました…ｗ） 1ステージが10分前後（個人的感覚）で出来るので、暇つぶしにプレイするのも良いんじゃないでしょうか('ω') ↓以下、Eden2とは関係ない余談↓ （このゲームの話ではないですが、Eden Obscuraのメニュー画面の「Shop」を押すとクラッシュしてゲーム終了してしまう不具合出てますよ修正お願いします）

Mouse only enjoyment at it's second best.

I was very excited for this game to come out. Then disappointed that it was not as similar as I wanted it to be. I really just wanted more gardens in the old game. That being said, This game is good! I love the variety of grimps and the new gardens are interesting. Lots of new mechanics and monsters to master. I do think the potions are pretty much a waste of time and that makes the crystals also a useless pick up, but that doesn't detract from the game. There seems to be an endless mode that you can unlock, I have unlocked it, but not played yet, it seems to be closer to the original game. TLDR: Worth buying if you like the original. Worth buying anyhow, a beautiful and fun game! The music continues to be fantastic! Ditto the visuals!

Worth every penny, enjoyed the 1st game and 2nd just more of a good thing. Relax chill times on the steam deck as well with fun music.

PixelJunk™ Eden 2 is a very relaxing game. Compared to the first game, the swinging mechanic has been simplified, which makes the game less frustrating but also less challenging for some people. The music is very good, a lot better than Eden 1’s soundtrack imo. I also like the addition of the “spices”, which act as power-ups that you start the levels with. The different Grimps (playable creatures) are still cute! I’m glad to finally have PJE2 in my Steam Library, after years of playing it on the Switch :D

ただの多段ジャンプゲームです 前のと違って動きの気持ちよさとかはありません 前作が好きだっただけに残念です
