[/p][h3]A Small Request from Scriptorium DevTeam[/h3][p]If there’s one thing we’d like to ask, it’s to please help us spread the word and leave a review of the Demo, when it's available. [/p][p]This is the biggest Next Fest ever, with over 4,000 (!) demos, and it’s a challenge for a small indie team like us to reach players. Scriptorium is a passion project created entirely by hand by human artists and developers, without any genAI assistance. Telling your friends or adding us to your Steam Wishlist means the world to us - it’s the best way to support our journey! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.[/p][p][/p][p]Once again - thank you for being such an incredible community. Mark your calendars and sharpen your quills - this Monday is the biggest day of Scriptorium’s history to date![/p][p][/p][p]Your Yaza Games and Mythwright Teams[/p][p]
[/p][p]PS. Recently we revamped our Steam page with brand new assets, descriptions and short videos to show what Scriptorium has to offer. Let us know what you think![/p][p]
[/p]
- [p]Choose your character - You’ll step into the shoes of two different scribes! In the demo version of Story Mode, you’ll get to choose between two starting avatars: the Pious Nun or the Gallant Knight.[/p]
- [p]Story Mode snippet - Experience the life of a working scribe! You’ll take over your Uncle’s scriptorium, take on (sometimes bizarre) commissions, decorate your workshop, and feel the rewarding vibe of fulfilling the manuscript dreams of your esteemed clients.[/p]
- [p]Sandbox Mode - Want to just create without worrying about clients? Sandbox mode lets you experiment with a pretty big library of over 300 hand-drawn assets. We selected them carefully to give you a taste of the final game without spoiling everything. With a limit of up to 100 elements on a single parchment, there’s plenty of space for your most intricate masterpieces! (Note: this limit applies only to the demo version).[/p]
- [p]Pigment Creation - the alchemy of art! You’ll be able to grow flowers and gather ingredients to create your own palette. While the full shop is still being stocked for the final game, you’ll have plenty of colors - and even some gold - to make your art stunning.[/p]
- [p]Decorate Your Workshop - Something for the cozy game lovers! The demo includes a selection of decorations to make your Scriptorium workshop feel like home. Psst: if you’re a diligent decorator, you might even unlock a very special in-game pet to keep you company while you work! 🐾[/p]
