🔥 Burning Skies Demo – Coming December 9th

Hey everyone,
After a long time in development, I’m finally excited to announce that the Burning Skies Demo will be available on December 9th!

This project has been a huge part of my life for quite some time. I’ve spent countless hours building, testing, breaking, and refining every little piece to make the gameplay feel fast, chaotic, and satisfying — just like the classic shooters that inspired it. It’s been a tough but incredibly rewarding process, and I’m really proud of how far it’s come.

The demo marks the first time players will finally be able to jump in and experience the chaos firsthand. It’s just a small glimpse of what’s coming, but it already captures the spirit of what I’ve been working toward: pure, high-energy arcade action in a world on fire.

I can’t wait to see your reactions, hear your feedback, and keep improving the game together with the community.

Thanks to everyone who’s been following my work and supporting NukGames — your encouragement really keeps me going.

See you in the skies soon!

Updates #1 and #2 - Fixes, quality of life and more

Hello friends, how are you doing?

For the past month I've been constantly trying to improve Burning Skies Arcade, with the help of your feedback, there where 2 big updates in this period, but since I didn't posted about the first one, I'm posting about both here. Here's what changed:

Update 1.01

- Player Lifebar remade, to be less intrusive;
- Boss Lifebar remade, and now it shows the name of the boss;
- Fixed a bug that caused made players unable to change the body on the body select screen/
- Improved the way that enemies are spawned, so they are in a better position at the screen;
- Adjusted the boss intro;
- Fixed some menu itens, that displayed incorrectly;
- Fixed issues with the steel mill boss, that made impossible to fight him;
- Adjusted some 'Destroy boss' challenges, that didn't had the path on the correct width;

Update 1.02
- Fixed a bug that made the timer still running with the game paused on challenges;
- Fixed the challenges complete screen that where not showing;
- Added a reset all challenges on the challenges complete screen;
- Changed the behavior of the language select screen, now the players only need to select the language without needing to click on the "back" button (wich where not clear)
- Fixed the walls and floor foes being spawned in the middle of the screen;

Plus a bunch of smaller fixes I did and forgot to write down =S

I also released 3 DLCs for players who want to support the project, and also me as a game developer (I'm not funded by publishers and keep the lights on majoritarily with sales here from steam)

Here's a bundle with all of them and with an aditional 20% off
