Of a possible %800.00 completion, right?

[Long John Silver]

News from IGA: if you beat the game on hard with every possible room explored and items obtained, you unlock a secret "bikini glyph". He didn't reveal the function of this glyph.

A purple/pink colored Nova Skeleton beam that is.  And she's a good infinite water jumper :p.

While I think there could be some additional animation in the sealife, I am loving the look of the water area.  The music however I only think fits the surface area.  There needs to be a more calm tune when you're deep beneath.  Regardless this may be one of my all time favorite CV areas.

I first thought the mountain area had a remix of AoS' waterway music. But it hasn't. Not that it would have made any sense, but you never know. Also I like that... bass... sound... thingy in the underwater music.

However, there are traces of the AoS "Top Floor" tune in the Mountain song. I kinda like it!

I have a feeling this soundtrack is one that will grow on me. The tracks aren't as immediate as they usually are when Yamane is composing. But they're interesting and kinda... uhm.. sombre.

Btw, In the IGN article it said that OoE is 1,5 times the size of PoR (number of rooms, that is). Could be good news. Unless they're gonna copy/paste most of it again. That would be unbearable.

Some new screenshots today showing a little bit of Laura the Jeweler and a few new weapon glyphs.

Also, guis, did you see the last video, number 4? Take a look at Shanoa's status screen...apparently, the player got a 96.40% completion rate within 5 hours, 23 minutes, and 28 seconds.

This is IGA we're talking about, he most likely either just rocks that much at this game, or its still not a finished build.
Also, anyone notice that its very late in the game, but she never double jumps?

[shelverton.]

OMG teh cleavage

Also, the artwork is really good.

Then maybe you can get 200% instead of just 100%? Because unless the stage is closer to the end...IGN did say that this game was 1.5 times bigger than PoR...

All admit, all this news just made my day. I can't wait to get my hands on this game permanently.

I'd say, I really do enjoy the mountain music and the game is looking great so far.

[semianonymous]

One thing it could very well be, however, is the percentage of the stage, that could be how it works
