Wow, its been a long time. I have not been cutting much foam recently. In fact the cat savaged the wiring on my home brew machine and I had a tough time putting it back together. Recently I purchased a Creality CV-01 laser cutter/engraver. Its very similar to a hot wire foam cutter. I would call it 2.5 dimensions, as in addition to the x and y, you can turn the laser on and off, or even modulate the laser power level. Cutting is almost like the foam wire cutter, except that you can turn the laser on/off allowing you not need a single continuous path for the machine to follow. Engraving is not possible with the foam wire cutter, so this is a new function to be experimented with. The machine runs GCODE so in that respect its very much like the foam wire cutter.
