[p]Greetings fellow gods,[/p][p][/p][p]I've heard far and wide that the demo hasn't been very good at showcasing Soulash 2, and I have to agree. It's always a challenge to prepare it considering how open the game is, but the last update was in February 2024, 18 months ago.[/p][p][/p][p]Today I've upgraded it to include everything we've been working on over that time period, with limits on content described in the welcome message when starting the demo.[/p][p][/p][p]If anyone wishes to give it another try, we also have a short tutorial series on our YouTube channel and Discord with some friendly players who can offer advice.[/p][p][/p][p]Enjoy,[/p][p]Artur[/p]
