[p]Greetings, divine architects![/p][p]
The moment has arrived - the Eureka demo is now available to play![/p][p]After months of development and your invaluable feedback, I'm incredibly excited to finally put this early build in your hands. This is your chance to experience the core of what makes Eureka unique: the brutal choice of sacrificing your own people to wield divine power.[/p][h2]
What's in the Demo[/h2][p]This demo showcases the core gameplay on a single procedurally generated island. You'll have 4 in-game days to build your settlement, manage your population, and fight back the encroaching corruption.[/p][p]
Demo specifics:[/p]
- [p]Accelerated gameplay with bonus starting resources[/p]
- [p]Ramped-up difficulty to showcase the full challenge[/p]
- [p]Core divine magic system with life-powered spells[/p]
- [p]Settlement building and resource management[/p]
- [p]Corruption and monster defense mechanics[/p]

Note: The full campaign (traveling between procedurally generated islands and collecting additional foci) and higher-tier building progression are not available in this demo. Experience the core mechanics on one island - the full game features endless procedurally generated worlds to explore.[/p][h2]

A Personal Note[/h2][p]Hi, I'm Johannes, the solo developer behind Eureka. Thank you for taking the time to play this demo.[/p][p]This is an early build and some features are still in development, but I hope you'll enjoy this glimpse into the strategic tension at the heart of Eureka. Your settlers pray for survival - you decide if their sacrifice is worth the power it grants.[/p][p]
Please, if you enjoy what you see, add Eureka to your wishlist. It makes a massive difference for a solo dev like me, and ensures you'll be notified when the full game launches.[/p][p]
Feedback is always welcome - whether here in the Steam forums, on Discord, or wherever you prefer to share your thoughts. Your insights have shaped this game from the beginning.[/p][p]
- Johannes
