Press reviews: “A fantastic follow up that still nails the feeling of the original regardless of the genre change” 9/10 – WayTooManyGames “Never takes its foot off the pedal” 9/10 – GodisaGeek “A blood-pumping, head-banging, monster-bashing sequel... Steel Mantis has graciously transformed Valfaris into a brutal 2.5D Shmup while keeping the identity of the original intact” 80/100 – Gameffine
