@Skedaddle Doing a little digging, the upgrade is being handled by Racoon Logic, which is a studio formed from several former Typhoon Studio members with initial funding from Tencent and other sources.
So it's being handled by some of the original devs, which is a good sign.
Awesome! I really enjoyed playing Journey to the Savage Planet. It was a fun whimsical jaunt that didn't overstay its welcome. I bought the dlc when it was on sale and haven't gotten around to it yet. This update might give me the push to dive back in again.
@EliJapan From what I remember there were a couple spots where I died and had to traverse over previous areas but it didn't sour the experience. There is fast travel to certain points and a Metroid style feel where there are things you can't reach in older areas until a new skill or upgrade is purchased or found.
