Surprisingly enough, I enjoyed the first part more by a significant difference. Granted, there is more production value and more variety. Particularly, the Megaman section looks stunning. I still have issues with the Save distribution, which is a tad better, but the gameplay tones down the trap aspect a lot, which I appreciate. To my surprise, the difficulty is significantly decreased and the story is quite interesting and has the foundations of fangaming well set. The first screen features "I Wanna Be The Fangame!" (a good sign, since the maker acknowledges it as the hypothetical sequel to Kayin's endless influence) and the love towards I Wanna Be The Guy remains, which is a plus. I also loved that it played with the duality of good and evil that the first game established. It is a worthy sequel.
And still, the first entry made the bigger impact on me: more merciless, more memorable, more difficult needle, paying tribute to original classic games slightly less than this entry. Now you fight Angel, Satan's counterpart, and God, Beerzebub's counterpart. Both are significantly easier, but I must admit that the second phase of the final boss increased the difficulty by five points. Yayoi is back, with a nice song choice but is ultimately recycled in an easier way. For me, the original battles were more memorable (including their songs, which I'll never forget). It took me around 150 tries to beat Satan in the original game and Angel here was a 1st try. Is the maker making some kind of statement between good and evil and how beating the spiritually good is easier? Hey! I can speculate as much as I want!
I recommend both games. Many will prefer this sequel and I can see why. Maybe I am more old-schooled. I will pause Carnival fangames for now until I escalate in fangaming difficulty. Then I will face Justice (pun unintended).
Play both games if you manage to find them. They deserve way more reviews.

This game might have higher production value than heaventrap 1 but i still think this game isn't that much better. The only thing I can think of is the sprites and the final boss.

Compared to Heaventrap 1, the second game is a slightly easier, slightly more ambitious experience compared to what came before it. There are more fangames referenced and more variance in the visuals. It’s a decently constructed game and I think around the same level of quality as Heaventrap 1. I think I prefer that game though purely because it feels a little more engaging than this one. Overall a good time.
