Hi all!
The never-ending hot summer is over and fall has come in South Korea. I am writing the 18th devlog while welcoming the cool breeze.
I started the article with the title "We need your help", but today I would like to talk about the official version of METAL SUITS and the Steam demo version. And we really need your help!!
==============================
1. Story about the official version of METAL SUITS
METAL SUITS Project began development in May 2022. Since then, development has been done in parallel with other projects, so if you exclude that schedule, the development period has taken approximately 25 months until August 2024.
As of the end of August 2024, the PC version of the game has been completed, and starting in September, optimization work and porting for the console devices release are in progress.
There are three difficulty levels (Normal, Hard, Hell), and in the case of Normal difficulty, it took about 15 hours to clear the stage. If you enjoy other content such as hidden elements and additional stages, it seems that you will need about 18 hours of play.
Personally, I think the "Hell" difficulty is difficult, but it is incredibly fun, so I recommend you enjoy the "Hell" difficulty when the official version comes out.
2. Story about the Steam Demo version
The METAL SUITS demo version was officially(?) released in May 2024. A few days later, we were contacted by the producer of the Future Games Show to introduce our game on their show, and it was exhibited in early June.

And, in June 2024, it was selected as one of 22 featured games by Steam at the Steam Next Fest and was featured in a Steam promotional video.

By the way, did you know? We created new stages for the METAL SUITS demo version that are different from the official version.
Nevertheless, after playing the METAL SUITS, many people left reviews on the discussion board saying that it is really fun. Unfortunately, Steam does not provide a review feature for the demo version, which is why this happened. (I think most users don't know that reviews have been left on the discussion board!!)
But finally in September 2024!!! Steam has updated the feature to allow you to leave reviews for the demo version. Now, if you have played the Metal Suit demo on Steam, you can leave a review like the image below.
So, we would like to ask everyone who played our game, if you enjoyed the METAL SUITS demo, please leave a review! We would really appreciate it. >>>>> Go to the METAL SUITS Steam Demo page
