Only slightly. Just a bit better characters/sprites (the new ones).
That game's art problems reside pretty much in the concept itself. And by that I don't mean [only] "the theme" (in case).
Also, I think I read somewhere (on SRK perhaps) that Daemon Bride was not being made by Examu, but by some other no-name group...
Chara designer is obviously different. Sprite artists look the same to me.
As for The Baldr Team, I really know nothing about them. Have they made any games that you would recommend?
"Recommend"... not really. You have the Baldr series which were de-hentaied for the DC and PS2 iterations, though they're still "adventure"-heavy and the action sections are... bland. And you have
this, which I find quite unique.
