Demonheart: The Cursed Trial News

[h3]Hello, demonhearts and VN enjoyers![/h3]

[h2]The wait is over - the final chapter of Demonheart: The Cursed Trial is now live![/h2]



[h3]What's new?[/h3]
Chapter 7 is now included in the game (as of version 1.36)
The total word count is now over 160.000 words
The game now has 7 endings, other than the couple of "bad endings" it had in an earlier chapter
A small feature added: A triangle button in the lower-right can hide the UI, in addition to middle clicking

[h3]Plans for the future[/h3]
The plan is to:
Fix any potential issues with the content, logic, etc
Implement partial voice acting
Make a Mac OS version
Create an artbook DLC

When all this is done, the game will transition out of early access into full release.

Thank you all for your support! I hope you will enjoy the finale!

Hello, demonhearts and visual novel enjoyers!



A certain player choice will branch the story, the characters will say some different things as a consequence of previous choices, and there will be multiple endings. Because of this, the last chapter has a much higher word count, so there is more content to polish than in the previous chapters. We have yet to see how it will affect the actual play time.

I am currently editing the script, adding smaller player choices. The major ones are already implemented. While I shared some early screenshots before, my priority right now is to polish up the script before setting up all the visuals.

The aim is to add Chapter 7 to the game in the second half of March. It will remain in early access for a little while after that, to make sure there aren't any oversights. Also, after the last chapter is published, I will start looking for voice actors and directing them to implement partial voice acting.

I hope to be back soon with the last chapter! Thank you for your interest!

I'm glad to say that we've been making good progress on the last chapter, although it's taken longer than the previous ones because it has more content.

I've been polishing the existing content in various places.

One scene that got some new lines is a scene in Chapter 4 where the main character thinks about Vita in a nostalgic way. I realized this was another instance where your relationship points should be taken into account, so I've added some new conditional lines. Now hopefully, if you don't like Vita, the scene will sound more creepy and less nostalgic. And if you have some Evil points and low "Vita Approval", there will be a new line mentioning her "annoying face."

In this update, I've edited and polished some lines in the existing chapters for better flow. The meaning has stayed the same.

The only exception is a line that used to say the city of Ravage "was already a ruin" by the time MC was born. This was supposed to refer to the sad state of Ravage as seen in Demonheart: Hunters, but it sounded misleading. It made some players wonder if Janiya is old enough to have visited Ravage before the MC was born, which was not the intention.

Stay tuned as we work on the final chapter, and thank you for your patience!
