Savage Planet 2: Third-Person Fun, Poop Jokes, and Co-op
Revenge of the Savage Planet, sequel to Journey to the Savage Planet, makes a significant shift from first-person to third-person perspective. This change, according to creative director Alex Hutchinson, allows for more physical comedy, status effects, and character expression.
Shifting Perspectives and Enhanced Gameplay
The third-person view opens opportunities for showcasing the character’s personality through animations and easier platforming. Players can also enjoy customizable costumes.
Two-Player Co-op
The game features two-player co-op, a deliberate choice by the developers to foster more interaction and shared experiences between players.
Humor and Satire
The game retains its signature humor, including silly in-game advertisements and slapstick elements. It also incorporates social commentary, particularly on corporate culture.
A Bigger and Better Journey
Revenge of the Savage Planet expands on its predecessor with more planets, improved co-op features (including split-screen and cross-play), and enhanced comedic elements. The third-person perspective adds a new dimension to the gameplay, promising a bigger and funnier adventure.
