Detectives! We've got something special for you.
We listened to your feedback, read every review, and watched your videos and streams. Then we started working on an update, and it quickly grew into something much bigger.
For the past few months, we’ve been hard at work updating Parallel Experiment. We’ve fixed numerous bugs, reworked and improved many puzzles, added new features, and introduced a brand-new special level to the game!
Today, we’re releasing Parallel Experiment 2.0. The best part? It’s all available now, for free.
Near the final part of the game, you’ll now discover a completely new level filled with fresh puzzles that tie the entire experience together.
We felt the second half of the game was a bit lighter on puzzles, so we fixed that.
We admit the original ending felt rushed. It has been completely reworked. The pacing is better, the puzzles are more engaging, and the overall experience is significantly improved.
The game now features a completely redesigned hint system.
At any point, you can press the Hint button to receive a nudge in the right direction. Each puzzle includes multiple hints, most of which avoid giving direct answers - you still want to solve it yourself, don't you? Only the final hint typically reveals the full solution.
There are now over 300 hints in the game, and we hope it makes the experience more enjoyable for everyone.
We took a critical look at the game’s conversations and cutscenes and realized they were simply too long for a puzzle-focused experience.
They’ve now been rewritten and tightened to be shorter, clearer, and more to the point, while keeping the story intact.
We've squashed many bugs in the process. Big and small. Ugly and uglier.
All platforms now support Cloud Saves.
Your progress is automatically backed up online, making it easy to continue playing across multiple devices or recover your saves if needed.
Nothing.
While this update and new level is large enough for a paid DLC, we are releasing it for free. We built this to address your feedback and ensure you experience the game exactly as intended.
Both players must use the same version.
Due to major structural changes, version 2.0.0 is not compatible with version 1.0.X.
No.
If you have already completed the game or have an old save file, loading it will automatically transport you to the new content. You can start playing the new level right away.
