Steam Chronicle #13: Final Major Demo Update Incoming
Hello there, and welcome to Steam Chronicle #13! There’s a good amount to go over this time around, so let’s dive into it!
[h2]Final Demo Update and Progress[/h2]
Our goal is to prepare our final major demo update by early June, so that we can have it for the Steam Nextfest coming up. Aside from some new enemies and spell animations, the demo update has still largely been our focus this past month. We can't wait to share the final result of these updates and hopefully you will find them to be worth the wait. 😊
If you’d like to see more, we also just updated the Steam screenshots for the game! So be sure to check those out and drop a wishlist if you like what you see and haven’t done so yet. 🙂
[h2]New Enemies[/h2]
Also, enemy sprite commissions are now fully underway! This is exciting because we’ve focused on static level and overworld art for so long that it’s simply a breath of fresh air to design enemies. There is still the matter of programming their AI into the game, but this is still an exciting time for us. Here’s a sneak peek at a couple new/updated fiends below, this time made by DumpsterCat!
The Metal Head has been reworked and animations completed!
This ghosty may be cute but don't be fooled, he's a troublemaker!
[h2]Mysterious Figure[/h2]
You may remember an unknown figure in a dark blue cloak at the start of the (soon to be outdated) demo. This character is even in the key art.
He thinks he's a sneaky fella out there on that cliff...
We’ve largely avoided talking about this cloaked figure. I assure you that whoever this person is…they are important to the story in some way. Is this person friend or foe? You’ll have to wait a while longer to find out.

Well, here we are at the close of Steam Chronicle #13. If you made it to the end, thank you. It sincerely means a lot that you took the time to read up on our current progress. Take care of yourselves and keep your mental health in check because it is very daunting when you’re stressed and overwhelmed. Always remember there are those who love and care about you. 💓
And please look forward to our (hopefully last) demo update next month! There will be some surprises in store for players… 😉
Be seeing you soon,
Alan
