Hello everyone!
Restless Rites has just been updated before the game debuts on this month's Steam Next Fest!
This update is focused mostly on the game's presentation and pacing. The main goal here was to improve some small bits of the game to hopefully result in a better introductory experience to the game while reducing the time player's will spend on the Tutorial. A third "chapter" was added which functions as a small ending to the demo, with a small surprise.
You can find more details in the changelog below!
As always, If you have any feedback, please feel free to let me know either on the Game's Steam Community or (preferably) via the Feedback Form accessible within the Demo's Main Menu!
