When I was getting close to releasing Intravenous 1 back in 2021, I was running out of money and time, and so I had to cut various corners to finish the game.
Ultimately, the game ended up in a worse state than it could have been, with various ideas left unimplemented due to time & budget constraints.

Various new features present in Intravenous 2 were things I was thinking of adding to the first game, but couldn't.
During the development of Intravenous 2 I got the idea of remastering the campaign of the first game, as I thought it would be really cool to be able to play the original with all the improvements of the second game.

This Remaster DLC is a perfect opportunity to do just that and even go beyond, as the campaign has:

• all the new and improved gameplay mechanics of Intravenous 2 and is adapted to the gameplay design of the sequel
  
• an updated soundtrack with new tracks for levels that didn't have their own unique tracks
  
• updated level layouts
  
• completely re-done localization
  
• improvements to dialogue

All these changes are done to bring the level of quality of the original to the level of quality you'd expect from Intravenous 2.

This Remaster is as much a remaster as it is Intravenous 1 2.0 - it's in a state I wish I could have released the original back in 2021.
I hope you will have a great time with it, as I had a lot of fun preparing this campaign remaster!

P.S. try playing the original after this - it just won't feel the same anymore!

Sincerely,
Roman Glebenkov
