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.
FYI, the "O" in "GOG" is capitalized; it stands for "Good Old Games" as they originally made their claim to fame by modernizing access to literally old DOS, etc. games that are hard to run on modern PCs. It doesn't stand for "of."
With that said, yes, GOG should absolutely be prioritized, as well as itch.io.
