The long awaited second demo has arrived. This has been a long time coming because this isn't just another demo. It's what the final game will more or less look like. There's going to be plenty of changes in the coming weeks for sure but there are some things you should know.
One is a major announcement in itself but I'll give you a brief rundown here. Around next month, perhaps by the end of June or early July, will be the release of the full version. This game has been in development for nearly two years, but considering the scope of this game, I'm going to need more time to see its completion. As I mentioned many times before, this "full" version is actually more like the base game. It's going to have enough features to keep you entertain, but there's still more to come later down the line. All these future features will be free updates so you guys just need to buy the base game and you will get everything down the line eventually for free afterward. More information on that when the time comes.
For now, the second demo is here to showcase the possibilities of what this full-fledge game can be. But I must admit that this demo was rushed by the end of it. I wanted to release this demo to coincide with the announcement on the YT channel which was today, but that only gave me a week to work with and it wasn't enough time. There are still some things I didn't get to add like some sound effects for some attacks, and there are even some issues that I've discovered in the end that I will be fixing in the coming weeks. But time is not on my side, so any fixes that I make will have to coincide with the development of the base game. There's still so much to do but little time left, so I'm going to have to do some fixing on this new demo in the next few days. After that period, I'll be developing for the base game exclusively.
I won't go into details about what changes will be made or what needs to be fixed, but I will mention that if you have played the teaser demo and load up this new version of the demo, you may not be able to move in the main menu. That is because I didn't have time to optimize the save file. The base game is going to have a new save file because it's apparent that I need a specific save file for the base game. So it's best if you simply delete the old save file and start fresh. There is no menu option to do this, but there is a workaround.
When you boot up the game, hold down F11 when the loading screen appears. If you get the option to select a language, that is the sign that the file has been successfully deleted and the game should work like normal.
And that is about it. Enjoy the new demo and tell me what you think about on the Steam forums. I'll be going through any new threads to see what issues you have, any suggestions you give, or just general comments you have about the game.
