Planet of Lana 2: Dev talk on story changes and new gameplay features in the video

In the new developer video for Planet of Lana 2, the developers discuss the story and how the game mechanics and world have been significantly expanded.

Shortly before the release of Planet of Lana 2 on March 5, developers from Wishfully Studios talk in the latest dev talk video about the evolution of the series. Game Directors Adam Stjärnljus and Klas Eriksson explain how the sequel raises the bar both narratively and in terms of gameplay.

What is the deal with the Dijinghala faction? A technologically driven tribe that is causing serious harm to the planet Novo. Their interference throws nature and society out of balance. For Lana and her companion Mui, this sets off a journey — one that certainly won’t be to your disadvantage, as Planet of Lana 2 once again promises plenty of fun wrapped in a visually and acoustically stunning skill-based adventure filled with brain-teasing puzzles to solve.

In terms of gameplay, the puzzle platformer steps things up. Lana’s abilities have noticeably grown: wall jumps, smoother animations, and more dynamic movement sequences expand your options. Cooperation with her sidekick Mui remains essential, shaping numerous puzzles and interactions. Teamwork is not just a gameplay element, but also the emotional core of the adventure.

New locations — from icy peaks and tropical islands to underwater areas — add variety to Planet of Lana 2. Stealth sections and faster-paced sequences complement the integrated puzzle challenges. With its orchestral soundtrack, Planet of Lana 2 once again aims to impress as a cinematic puzzle platformer — this time bigger, more complex, and more ambitious in its storytelling.
