Anodyne 2 releasing August 12! Watch the Launch Trailer!
Anodyne 2 is releasing on August 12th at 10 AM PST on Windows, Mac and Linux!
That's right! In less than a week you'll be able to explore the world of New Theland and explore both 3D and 2D worlds.
Moreover, if you head to the store page to wishlist the game, there's also a new "Launch Trailer" to watch. (As you may expect, it is the trailer that says "Launch Trailer" in the thumbnail.)
Thanks for your patience as we approach release. Marina and I are so excited to share the game with you!
As a reminder, the game will be launching at $19.99 with a week-long 10% off discount. Current owners of Anodyne 1 will receive a 20% off coupon for Anodyne 2. The OST will be available for $9.99 with a week-long 10% off discount.
There will also be a "Week 1 Edition" complete-the-set bundle featuring the OST and Anodyne 2 for 10% off. The coupon *does* stack with the bundle! However the bundle will only be available for 10 days. (Perhaps it should be the "Week 1 and 3 days Bundle?")
After that bundle goes away, I will introduce the Anodyne Franchise Bundle, a 10% off complete-the-set featuring Anodyne 1 and 2.
Announcing the Anodyne 2 Week 1 Edition, pricing, and more!
Hey everyone! Sean Han Tani, Director of Analgesic Productions here. Thanks for your support of our games Anodyne, Even the Ocean or All Our Asias!
First off, I'm pleased to announce Anodyne 2 will be releasing later this summer for $19.99. The Anodyne 2 OST will also release, featuring over 80 minutes of music, for only $4.99!
For release week, the game will be 10% off ($17.99)!
Today I want to talk about THREE exciting things relating to the release of Anodyne 2: Return to Dust, and ways to save money when buying the game!

Anodyne 2: Week 1 Edition
For ONLY the first week of release, you'll be able to purchase a special complete-the-set bundle featuring both Anodyne 2 and its 80+ minute OST. We'll be pricing this at around $17.99***, meaning the OST is nearly free!
We recommend this bundle for owners of Anodyne 1 who enjoyed my music in the previous game and are planning to purchase the music.**
Anodyne Franchise Bundle
We'll be launching a complete-the-set bundle consisting of Anodyne 1 and Anodyne 2 as well. This is perfect for anyone looking to get into the series!
And for launch week*, we'll also be including the Anodyne 2 OST in here as well! Pricing will be $17.99 + cost of Anodyne 1 at the time.
The Anodyne Loyalty Coupon
Have you played Anodyne 1 yet? If not, picking it up now is a great idea, as upon release all owners of Anodyne 1 will receive a 10% off coupon for Anodyne 2! In fact, purchases of Anodyne 1 up to two weeks after Anodyne 2's release will also be given a coupon - even if you buy it in the franchise bundle.
Coupons are also applicable towards the aforementioned bundles!
Therefore, you can get up to 20% off on Anodyne 2 by being a player of Anodyne 1! You can even send this coupon to a friend.
---
* After launch week, the Anodyne Franchise bundle will consist of only Anodyne 1 and Anodyne 2. Purchasers of the bundle in the first week of Anodyne 2's release will NOT lose the Anodyne 2 OST. Purchasers of the bundle AFTER the first week will NOT receive the OST. The pricing of the bundle will be updated accordingly from $17.99 + Ano1 price w/ discount, to Ano2 + Ano1 price w/ 10% discount.
** Please note that the cheapest way to get the OST and Anodyne 2 is to buy the Week 1 Edition. Due to the bundle system, purchasing the game at $17.99 and then the complete the set bundle will be more expensive
*** Due to the bundle pricing system, the price of the Week 1 Edition bundle will be a few cents over or under $17.99.
(Note: prices and promotional periods may change.)
Wishlist Anodyne 2: Return to Dust, today!
Hi, players of Anodyne and Even the Ocean - it's Sean Han Tani here from Analgesic. I wanted to let you know that the sequel to Anodyne, Anodyne 2: Return to Dust, can be wishlisted today!
In a world first, Anodyne 2 mixes both 3D exploration with 2D dungeons.
You explore and drive around a surreal 3D dream world as Nova, shrinking into people's minds in order to clean dangerous Nano Dust in 2D. It's a bit of a mix of some of the concepts of Shadow of the Colossus, Psychonauts, as well as 2D and 3D Zelda games! Like Anodyne 1, it features bizarre creatures and strange places. The 3D and 2D environments range from natural landscapes, to unsettling homes and abstract areas.

Here's a few screenshots:

And here are some of the 2D areas:
Now shrunk down to Nanoscale form, Nova explores floating ruins to find Nano Dust.
Nova learns the ropes of being in Nanoscale while exploring the Albumenium.
