Reviews make it sound like it's just a more polished version of the original, which was already beloved.

Become the stealer of forms in GRIME II, a surreal action-adventure metroidvania. Launch tendrils made of hands to absorb foes and summon molds in their shape, as you explore a bizarre lived-in-world obsessed with art.

The first Grime was 2021, so 3 years prior to PoP. But playing both, they play very differently and didn’t feel visually similar. I can see what you’re saying in the lighting and shaders.

There are demos for both Grime games, so it could be a good way to get a feel for them

    I haven't watched any videos of first Grime, but this second one is very obviously running on the same engine at least. Again, that's a high praise from me, I will play the first Grime just because of that. 2nd one isn't available on Switch, so I can only play first one.
