Shelter 2, the sequel that trades playing as a mother badger for a mother lynx, has been delayed into next year.

Developer Might and Delight confirmed the news that Shelter 2 wouldn’t be coming until Q1 of 2015, foregoing its late 2014 release. Specific reasons weren’t given; presumably, the game just needs some more polishing and fine-tuning.

Shelter 2 is a bigger and better take on what made the original “meditative badger adventure” stand out. In both the original as well as the sequel, you play as a mother who must protect and feed her offspring.
