Freedom Planet 2 Preview - 2017 Update

[@SomecallmeJohnny]

This is looking more and more fantastic as development continues. Hope the complete package is great, everyone. :)

[@Freashplayer]

Ice Bear They found their way into Shantae. There's no stopping them. They can be anywhere. They will invade other games. They plan to invade all the games. Freedom Planet is merely a stepping stone on their way to video game domination.

[@ikagura]

hey good

[@nemoguy]

Are you gonna cover this too or are you gonna wait till the game comes out?

[@substidude285]

SomecallmeJohnny It will be great. Development has taken some time now, so I don't have any doubt about the final version.

[@ScatterbrainPete]

The next thing you know, the game will be invaded by Mettools and those black blob enemies from Ristar.

[@VeggieGamer]

I honestly wasn't sure if the game was still getting made! Really happy to see progression! #TeamPandaGirl

[@brian_Austin27]

Veggie Gamer yes #TeamPandaGirl

[@kevinbutkevin5561]

It's #teamneera

[@Seraphna]

We're definitely still in production, we only tend to share major announcements once a year at Christmas since repeating, "We're still working on it" but not always having stuff to show would get tedious. :)

[@Chocice75]

Grr! That stupid panda girl! (AKA the first time I got a game-over)

[@JoshuaJordanUbernerd527]

To GalaxyTrail I loved the first game because it was a nod to classic Sonic style gameplay but had it's own identity. From this trailer I can see that this is going to continue but you are furthering your own identity by adding new characters with different gameplay, adding new moves for the original three, and adding new hazards and puzzles that seem very ambitious. I cannot wait to play this game, (which I am hoping we be on the Switch) you take all the time you need to make this game awesome! Sincerely your fan Joshua

[@ikagura]

Doing anything Sonic could do betterly

[@FoxLuke8]

If you see the website, one of the developers is Christian Whitehead, the same Retro Engine creator from Sonic Mania

[@IkeOkerekeNews]

Wrong.

[@AliVe1234]

True.

[@sonicdj558]

No, sonic is better

[@DaVideoGameBeastr]

It's always difficult to maintain the spirit of the original while still adding new concepts and ideas. This seems to be accomplishing that, nice!

[@jocketf3083]

It definitely did!

[@awyeagames]

I can't wait to give my money to you guys xD

[@truearea53]

Same here.

[@BenjaVeraV]

SAME

[@BorntoOrnn]

Same

[@BorntoOrnn]

Gabriel Miller What would that be?

[@awyeagames]

of course dragon would be an animal.

[@Nicholas_Steel]

>60FPS game? Check. >60FPS recording of said 60FPS game? Check. Why do so many other companies, groups and KZbinrs fail at this basic stuff? And the gameplay looked nice in this video, awesome stuff GalaxyTrail.

[@Magi_H2U]

Ikr lol

[@derpboyzero7669]

This outright makes up the wait of 10 months since showcasing characters. Lilac's dash gives Spade vibes. Also excited yet anxious that Corazon tea has a widespread attack which makes guarding more than a fancy addition. Smash Bros vibes of gitting gud.

[@frostiikin8158]

HAPPY FEET, WOMBO COMBO!!!

[@brandonjoseph1106]

@@frostiikin8158 That ain't falco...

[@derpboyzero7669]

*OOOH* *OOOOHHH*

[@ProtectorOfMemes]

Finally, some kick-ass gameplay footage. Looking forward to the inevitable Switch release

[@fivestarmeal-g7g]

The character sprites look WAY more detailed than last time. Really hope for a physical edition somewhere down the line unless there is gonna be one and I just missed it.

[@ikagura]

Yep that's great

[@shingshongshamalama]

The new artwork makes me want an animated series out of this. So damn bad.

[@ikagura]

Neera is looking great

[@TheXev]

If this gets a phyical release on Switch, I'll explode. lol

[@ericjp2000]

Finally! An update on one of my most anticipated indie games! Keep it up GT, you guys rock!

[@themartinteam2]

You just made my crappy day so much better. Bless this game, this company, and this franchise ❤️

[@manuelalbertoromero9528]

...Mitty. (O_*)

[@retrotaco11]

I love how the creators as making Freedom Planet it's own identity rather than it just being another sonic clone, this game looks amazing ^^ can't wait for it

[@lancecryor]

Is it strange that the two games I'm looking forward to the most in 2018 Freedom Planet 2 and Ori and the Will of the Wisps? 2 of the best indie games I've played and two of the best soundtracks I've heard.

[@TheRetroGamerGuy]

You should definitely check out Iconoclasts as well. It's coming out early next year and has been in development for almost 8 years. Here is a video if you are interested. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJ-4f2Rvrax8sLc&ab_channel=konjakonjak

[@ShadowSpike94]

Another Indie game to look forward to in my opinion is CrossCode. Aint a 2d platformer but it looks great.

[@177SCmaro]

I'm in the same boat. Freedom Planet 2 and Ori are pretty much the only games I'm looking forward to. I'm just so tired of FPS after FPS that all run together to the point they feel like copies of each other. There seems like so much more creativity going on with many of the independent games.

[@SuperFrancoco]

*before watching the video* Oh cool, a small 4 minutes preview of Freedom Planet 2 *after watching the video* THAT VIDEO WAS 4 MINUTES LONG!? It's like I felt every single second of it! So much stuff to see in a single short preview!

[@Trickster1995]

And they don't stop making awesome music

[@willjace789]

Totally kicking!

[@LeilaRWilson]

We try our best!

[@Wyrdwad]

Oh, hey, it's Woofle! Your soundtrack to the first Freedom Planet was my favorite of 2014, and I still listen to it regularly (my favorite track is Pangu Lagoon 1, but I'm also partial to Aqua Tunnel 2, Relic Maze 1, and... well, pretty much most of the soundtrack, TBH!). I'm really looking forward to playing this sequel, and I'm looking forward to listening through its soundtrack just as much! I've listened to some of the alpha-version tracks, and really liked what I heard, but am waiting to hear everything in context before I listen to anything more. Anyway, just wanted to stop in and say, thanks for being awesome, and please keep doin' what you're doin'! Strife, too. And everyone else involved. Freedom Planet rules!

[@LeilaRWilson]

Hey-hey! :D Thank you so much!!! I can't wait until you can hear all the like, post-alpha stuff, and get to play these stages, too! It's me and Strife on composition this time (although he's having me do a lot more of it this time,) and Falk on mixing/mastering. We're really proud of what we've got thus far :D

[@Manueljlin]

Leila R. Wilson you never dissapoint :D

[@millabasset1710]

Hope you guys have a switch version planned out, kind of hard not to.

[@ZER0O9]

Sky Star this seems right up the 3ds alley but I have both consoles and would prefer it on switch.

[@Trimint123]

Since Freedom Planet 2 is using Unity Engine, yes. It's possible because Switch supported it.

[@lilacdragonblade]

me too! me too! I soooo want this on my switch!

[@laughingleo7739]

Depends on what stage of development they are in rn. If they are in early beta, then most likely.

[@fluidwolf]

Honestly if they multiple versions I hope they all will be updated evenly this time

[@Smitteys86]

Damn this looks super fun. I love how you guys have started to focus the game more on action. The crazy variety of different moves and combat maneuvers looks so fun to mess around with. I can't wait!

[@willjace789]

This trailer was a real looker,they sure took their sweet time with this.

[@gamerprince-tl5hg]

Yeah I agree. Just finished the first game on Lilac's story and I'm glad this seems to focus more on action than the first game did which was kind of a combo of action and speed

[@tsyumamatsuthehavenofguard32]

*Can I just say that these just look downright "Amazing."*

[@ZeroX_MK]

I love how each character pops out, especially with their own stylistic move set and abilities! Plus the gameplay is as or more frantic than the first, that’s for sure. I can’t wait for a release date x) Keep pushing GalaxyTrail!!

[@HappyFrogGamesLLC]

The more I see of this game (and the more I play of the demos you've been releasing), the more I'm thoroughly convinced this is gonna be one of those awesome sequels that improves upon everything that the first game did right and fixes the things the first game did wrong. So excited!

[@Schinak]

Christ you people are putting so much in this sequel. Simply amazing

[@SEGAsonicstuff]

There are many amazing games coming out next year.... But this one is now officially the game I look forward to the most. This looks AMAZING. ^_^ It's such a huge improvement over the original which was already amazing. THIS is how you do a sequel.

[@Gnidel]

After 2017 was just waaaay too good for my wallet, FP2 is the only thing I wait for in 2018.

[@dino-mighttheearthangel3206]

Sonic should be a DLC character! #SONICXLILAC

[@truearea53]

+Dino-Might Or even better. Make galaxy trail team up with SEGA to do a crossover game, like "SonicxFreedom planet"

[@azure4622]

Dino-Might no

[@TheSpeedyBoi]

Tbh this is one of those games I forgor existed, then I looked at my steam wishlist and it said it comes out in SEPTEMBER OF THIS YEAR 0_0

[@darkmind9637]

I like how they changed Lilac's running animation from Sonic-like to Ninja-like. I think it's more fitting for the new design and proves that they are mantaining their word of giving the franchise its own identity from now on. Good.

[@Teknanam]

Ironically, her new run is more in line with Modern Sonic compared to the old run which was obviously inspired by Classic Sonic.

[@manuelalbertoromero9528]

...Holy shit you're right. 0_0

[@LittleFoxGirl8]

I'm so glad for this update video. Everything looks amazing, I can't wait until it's complete ^_^

[@BadguyXIII]

More smoother actions with the characters? Creative levels and boss fights?! Footage of the arena?! Jeeze, GalaxyTrail, only so much hype I can handle! XD Thanks for this fantastic trailer!

[@xtrems2]

after seeing Milla's victory animation, I just need to pet a puppy.

[@DevilRaptorB]

make sure its a bloodhound , and a female

[@famous305matrix]

There's also Milla plush you can get on levelupstudios.com

[@1Diddums]

The arena is looking absolute top shelf. Do appreciate time being invested into elements that will keep the product playable for many moons to come, post release. Keep at it, and take as long as y'need.

[@Crush40Freak89]

Alright let's see: Awesome new moves, the animation and quality has so far already even better improved than expectet, interesting new locations, Milla even more badass and yet still freaking adorkable:3 Yup even higher reasons to be hyped for this game and looking so much forward for it's Release.^^

[@OneEdge_]

This looks absolutely stunning, huge props to the whole team, can't wait to play it. I especially like what you did with Milla, I don't know why but all of her movements seem super fluid to me. Prolly cuz she best gurl.

[@NekoVJ18]

Take all the time you need, I want to play a great game and I'll wait for it.

[@grimmd4ys]

Man, you guys have been making progress! I'm so stoked!

[@imveryangryitsnotbutter]

"Looks like someone's hanking for a spanking!" ...umm... kinky...??

[@ikagura]

Good game

[@ThatSneakman]

First time hearing Lindsey Jones in the game, and it's this line. Not even mad.

[@BossBasher]

Not really, no. Looks fun this does though

[@TonyTheTGR]

[@alexmcneill6445]

XD Jack-Hedgehog actually did a Art Trade with a friend to get that pic (that friend also drew stuff for me too~).

[@carolthepyro899]

I can't wait to play this!

[@truearea53]

+1sonicfan2007 aka cris2007 wow you people don't know how to give it a rest. If it is a rip off, then where are the chaos emeralds and crazed mad scientists for world domination? :P

[@truearea53]

+1sonicfan2007 aka cris2007 Don't be an idiot now okay? For its been a few months and i don't wanna participate with some nonsense.

[@Justing56]

The art style, the mechanics, the music, the polish: everything looks amazing. I'm just as hyped for this as I am for Kingdom Hearts 3. Keep up the work GalaxyTrail!

[@ippy5487]

I am....speechless.....all I really need to say is...We love you GalaxyTrail...This made my lukewarm morning into something filled with hype and unrivaled excitement!

[@darkbrengameroom3929]

I love how this looks so far Freedom Planet deserves so much love 😍

[@JAMOVATN]

I can not describe how excited i am for this game! Freedom Planet was my favorite game of all time for 2 years straight and I have no doubt that this will live up to my expectations! Keep up the good work!

[@ferngm9014]

Im glad all these trailers emphasize gameplay over anything else

[@ikagura]

Unlike Sonic Forces haha

[@luigifan2438]

THIS IS AMAZING!!!!! THANK YOU GALAXYTRAIL

[@s0nicblade353]

You know, I was just thinking about how this game was going yesterday. It looks good! Keep up the awesome work, team!

[@willjace789]

Go Go Go!

[@ploik21]

I hadn't found a single game for all of 2017 I could get hype for. Thank you for saving my year. It's been pretty rough for gaming.

[@hadokenexe]

This game is really starting to show some polish! With Sonic Mania out, I'm happy you gave this game more of its own identity as well. It's looking more "Megaman" than Sonic at this point and I couldn't be happier! All the characters look fun to play as, which is more than I can say about FP1. Now, the important question: Double pack special edition for Switch when?

[@Tales499]

I literally can't wait for this game anymore! Outstanding job, GalaxyTrail! Keep on at it!

[@ReuvenShopper]

Is May 24th , 2019. It has been 1 or 2 years since the video release their update. You should make another update video , about Freedom Planet 2.

[@starflame34]

Finally, a new video after MONTHS of silence! I know you guys are hard at work, but not even at least a simple teaser or new screenshots? Hopefully we'll get more of this in 2018.

[@powerpeach401]

All the characters skills are unique and well made especially a big thanks to the improvement on millas performance and i cant say how much im exciting to explore all those new levels and soundtracks 😄

[@mdstevens0612]

I will for sure purchase. I mean, the game always had this kitschy Voltron meets Thundercats aesthetic that was a little weird but you guys deserve the support on solid gameplay alone, and the polish on this one looks leagues ahead of the first game.

[@MariusUrucu]

It looks like Freedom Planet 2 is taking some cues from Spark The Electric Jester, more specifically for Lilac. She now has a dash and air dash. If it's one thing that Freedom Planet needed, it certainly was the dash.

[@manuelalbertoromero9528]

Poor Spark. Hope one day he gets the recognition he deserves.

[@SharkLordProductions]

And the gurad. Definitely the guard.

[@AriaKyuKyu]

I'm really excited ! I really love the characters, especially Carol. I can't wait!

[@SaiKisaragi]

This is a incredibly interesting game series. The game was already at such a “close to finish” stage in 2017 and still needed 5 more years? Game development is extremely hard and I wouldn’t wish it on my worse enemy. Glad I got to play the game though :)

[@anttails]

Loving it so far - eagerly waiting ;)

[@CanalFreedomPlaneteAfins]

The graphics are impressive

[@FutureRetroRoots]

Getting better and better!😁 can't wait for full release!

[@oznelnavnaekal6679]

It’s almost here, today it’s the 10th of August 2022 and on the 13th of September 2022, a month and 3 days, it finally arrives on Steam.

[@Garrettcube]

Ask and thou shall receive. Also I’m really stoked at how it’s coming along! Hope it comes out sometime next year!

[@MrJoyShow]

Looks really slick, can't wait to give it a go.

[@sesrea562]

Who needs a christmas present when you ha ve this.

[@dontjudgemeyousillybilly1043]

Random person:Sonic mania has no competitors me: *shows this*

[@ikagura]

Sonic Mania and Freedom Planet are basically fans doing what Sega cannot do

[@austinreed7343]

RenaWelp34 Mania already blew Action Henk out of the water, which it was dead in anyway.

[@likeanuuk6612]

galaxy trail: "hold my beer."

[@water275]

RenaWelp34 Actually Sonic is winnin bcuz "Nostalgia" and The SoundTrack. FP2 Is the gameplay. It looks smooth.

[@Seraphna]

FP2's Engine was coded by Christian Whitehead, that guy who's name is all over Mania. :)

[@Moj1989]

Lookin' groovy as always. Can't wait for the full version!

[@MariusUrucu]

Freedom Planet 2 is looking hype. :)

[@TheLeetCasualGamer]

You guys successfully made one of my favorite 2-d platform games with the original. This one is looking even better, really excited :D

[@Sonic_Gamer501]

Now all we need is an update on the Torque and Spade DLCs for Freedom Planet 1.

[@Sonic_Gamer501]

Nerdexpresstrain Oh

[@gameandwatch909]

Love the new levels and music. Keep up the amazing work Galaxytrail.

[@Dinnick3rd]

Will 2018 be the year?

[@Orange_Swirl]

2019 will be the year... hopefully....

[@kevinclayton4965]

They say that the game is coming out early next year. Fingers crossed...

[@Bunihime]

Hey its 2019 coming late 2019

[@r.p.7174]

Still my most anticipated game of 2019. I'm buying this the second it comes out.

[@Type3Diabeto]

Please take your time on this, it looks so promising

[@ikagura]

Violet Unlike how Sega do their Sonic games

[@Type3Diabeto]

Ikagura Exactly

[@ikagura]

Even Mania and Forces were rushed out (Mania was intended to get more cutscenes between levels and Forces took 3 years making the newer engine and 1 for the game itself)

[@xfiremhyoutube]

Best preview ever. can't wait for the release.

[@CommanderBroShep]

Just saw the Steam page and there was an image of Lilac posing with camera options. So in a way, you can take selfies in the game. 10 outta 10. 10 outta 10. Hundred outta hundred. Best game. BEST GAME.

[@Seraphna]

We actually have a full on Camera Mode for it. :)

[@CommanderBroShep]

Gabriella Creighton It'd be funny if certain enemies reacted to the camera option and posed with the character you're playing as.

[@Catoust]

Are you part of the development team?

[@Seraphna]

I am a part of GalaxyTrail's staff.

[@KomaGamer65]

This game just keeps getting better and better. When the Steam Release hits, all the hype will pay off. Great work you guys :3

[@sonicdolphin117]

Nice to see an update on this after so long. Something tells me development has been hell XD

[@queenyblahblah]

I’m super excited for this game. The original was one of my favourite indie games of all time, so i’m really happy there’s going to be a sequel ;;

[@TheZavinskiStories]

Looks even better than the original! I can't wait for this game to come out on Switch!

[@BlazeBorne147]

I was getting anxious to see an update on this game, I’m glad to see that progress is looking pretty good. I’m looking forward to seeing the final release sometime in 2018.

[@Vetusomaru]

The original was already great and the sequel looks lots of times better. It's hard to believe that Freedom Planet started as a Sonic fan-made game to end up as a very fresh game that is even better than most 2D Sonic games that have been released after Genesis era. Looking forward the final game.

[@lancelnce]

GalaxyTrail, i'm happy and relieved to know that you guys are saving the gaming universe from cancers that they call "games" today with your amazing work! I really loved Freedom Planet

[@nophoria]

Bring this to Switch, we like good indies. It looks great.

[@vanivanov9571]

Merry Christmas, +GalaxyTrail ! Thanks for the present! As it says in the description, guys, there's a new demo available!

[@pegasynthelstrohea]

Looks good, loved the first game and looking forward to this

[@ZengoOshiba]

Why do i get the feeling Milla Barking is gonna be a wholesome meme?

[@LupineHero]

I just beat the demo with Carol without ground jumps, handlebar jumps, or jump disc. I might have an obsession.

[@NightfoxNiko]

I hope I'm not the only one who was reminded of the theme for Toxic Caves from Spinball the entire time, but this is great to see after so long-! Hyped to see more about this boss character that looks a lot like Carol.

[@scottcampbell3735]

This looks great. Looking forward to when it is officially released.

[@TurboPikachu]

I'm absolutely loving how FP2 is coming along ♥ tiny nitpick tho: Milla's sprite issue from FP1 is still present in FP2, where her bracelets aren't properly re-mapped when facing to the left.

[@kap1618]

Love the new lilac run spirte but anyone else feel like neera needs a bit more attacks? I love her but she is the hardest to master.

[@dontjudgemeyousillybilly1043]

kap1618 is because she is op. She takes a lot to master

[@kap1618]

I get it. She is the slow and powerful to carol fast but weaker. In terms of attacks. My major complain is that her attacks leave her open a lot of the time but I guess that is why they have a dodge button.

[@leafblade2636]

She also has super armor on attacks and the most health, so she gives no fucks about smaller enemies.

[@bunnimaru1952]

Milla's borking for the mission complete is still quite possibly the most adorable thing I've ever heard/seen in my entire life.

[@shovelknight9417]

It's here :D

[@bloody-valkyrur8111]

This looks really great, especially the character animations are gorgeous, keep up the good work^^

[@Zacekchan]

Freedom Planet was put on my radar a while ago and its one of the few games I keep revisiting and replaying. 2 seems to one up that and I'm super excited

[@Lionel10102006]

Woah I wasn't expecting an update today! I thought this was Brainscratchcomms for a moment!!

[@chris6471]

Seems that the game is nearly complete in terms of stages, cool! This is pretty much going to be one of the best indie games out there.

[@Seraphna]

VA: 100% Storyboarding: 100% Sprite Design: Ehh... 75%ish? (Most are designed, not perfect yet, and we're working on animations. There are well over 100 NPCs on top of bosses and enemies and the MCs.) Stage Design: 50%ish We're progressing, but the game has become a much larger scope than we ever intended. Look forward to it.

[@CNWhatImSaiyan]

2:08 Carol’s sister; voiced by Lindsay “Ruby Rose” Jones

[@AshramIndustries]

She has a name, y'know. Corazon, (or Cory, as Carol likes to call her).

[@CNWhatImSaiyan]

Ashram Astarcia I honestly forgot 😅

[@ThatSneakman]

That's her. And she sounds awesome.
