Hi everyone!
Wanted to share a couple of quick updates.
Slay the Princess was accepted into the PAX Rising showcase, which is a special spot on the show floor for exciting new indie games — we've been demoing it there since Thursday, and will also be there today and tomorrow, so if you're headed to PAX, please come say hi!
As part of the showcase, we put together a vastly expanded the Slay the Princess demo, adding entirely new chapter 2 branches, tons of art, and hundreds of lines of brand spanking new VA from Nichole Goodnight and Jonathan Sims. While you can play this demo at PAX, you can also play it on Steam right now! All-in-all, there's about 2.5-3 hours of content total!
Look how popping this booth is!
On top of progress with Slay the Princess, we continue to be hard at work on Episode 5 of Scarlet Hollow — we're still plugging away at the script right now (Episode 5 is going to be our biggest yet by a wide margin [how surprising!]), but in the meantime, we've been cooking up a brand new game mode that'll give you an entirely new way to play the game. Keep your eyes peeled for an update at the beginning of next month!
If you want early access to this new mode (and want an early reveal) that build is available to the alpha tester tier on our Patreon right now!
As always, thank you so much for your continued patience and support! Running a two-person studio building these kinds of projects is incredibly challenging work, and all of you are the reason we're able to remain independent and free to make our games the way we've envisioned them.
