Please reach out if you have any issues or questions!

We're extremely excited to announce that Quetzal's demo is now available to play!

We would love to hear your feedback and experience so we can improve the game for the final release. Now that the demo is ready, our goal is to start working on new areas and enemies, so we hope to share new updates in the coming weeks.

If you would like to delve deep into Quetzal, we have added a hidden level which we are challenging players to complete hitless and without touching the ground.

If you would like to participate, join our discord community and send us a video: https://discord.com/invite/MCV3pcKGZh

It would also be a huge help if you could let us know of any bugs you may find, either in the Steam community or through our Discord.

We really hope you enjoy Quetzal's demo and look forward to hearing your thoughts!
