Steam Next Fest Demo & In-Game Trophy Event
Steam Next Fest is one of the most important events of the year for indie games, and Nocturne has a brand new demo created specifically for Next Fest.
For those who don't know, Steam Next Fest is a week long event hosted by Valve where upcoming games with playable demos have the opportunity to be discovered by millions of people. Here's why it's so important...
The number of unique demo plays and wishlists Nocturne receives between June 15th and 22nd directly impacts how the Algorithm ranks the game in this event. The higher the ranking, the more organic visibility Nocturne gets, which means more people discovering the game for the first time.
I genuinely cannot overstate how much of a difference this one week can make. It has the potential to put Nocturne in front of millions of players, and that kind of exposure could change everything.
So if you want to support Nocturne, here's exactly what you can do. Play the demo at any point between June 15th and 22nd. And if you haven't wishlisted the game yet, doing so during Next Fest is the best time to do this.
Brand New Demo
The brand new Steam Next Fest demo includes:
The entire Chapter 1 of the game.
A brand new playable section of Chapter 2, including a never before seen boss!
Added the Arcade, where you can replay any song from the demo.
Complete rework of all items and consumables.
Boss fights now use the live Orchestra versions of the music.
Dialogue updates, Note Flares, Autoplay Toggles, New Corruption UI, New Latency Calibration, and tons of improvements and fixes.
Limited Time In-Game Trophies
As a thank you to everyone who shows up during Next Fest, there's something special waiting for you in the game. By achieving highscores during the event, you can unlock a series of Steam Achievements that come with exclusive in-game trophies displayed in The Arcade.
These trophies will ONLY be obtainable during Next Fest. Once the event ends on June 22nd, you can no longer earn the trophies. If you've already been playing the demo before Next Fest, don't worry, simply enter the Arcade at any point during the event and any trophies you've already qualified for will unlock automatically.
