Pretty engaging story that didn't quite stick the landing in my opinion. The world and characters are interesting, the music is very good, the writing is funny but it knows when to take itself seriously. Unfortunately the gameplay is quite weak, even for a point and click. I would've liked to see more in depth combat (or no combat at all), and the puzzles could've done with some finetuning.
Overall it's still absolutely worth a shot if you can get behind point and click adventure games.

I hate rougelites, and yet this is way better than the first game. The music is fun, the combat isn't braindead like it's predecessor, and it's very clear that the developers are getting much more experienced at this.
The progression is well paced, and there is a solid enemy variety + weapon variety. The bosses are good fun as well. Side quests were decent, but I'd like a better reward than just a hat.
The writing still isn't quite as good as it could be, although it still managed to get a couple of laughs out of me. Also, the pacing kinda falls apart at the end, as you get so much money from very specific items (and not much else).
Overall, I'm actually somewhat excited about what the Turnip Boy devs do next. I couldn't say that about the first game.

It's genuinely hard to think of an improvement to this game. It's just so damn good. I guess the artstyle could be a tiny bit better, but I'm grasping at straws. I used to think that there were better 2D platformers than this, but I just don't know if that's the case anymore.
I'm super hyped for their next game, but I'm very worried for it's early impressions. As it's a metroidvania, people are going to instantly compare it to silksong, which is a battle that may not end well. I really hope people understand that it's okay to enjoy two masterpieces.
