The End of the Sun News

Hello folks!

[h3]Steam Next Festival just started! [/h3]
Enjoy The End of The Sun Demo and other awesome demos on Steam!
The mythical place with the "Tree of life" in the middle that you can see below is one of the locations in The End of the Sun. :) We spend a lot of time designing its look and multi-layer meaning. You could try out the demo and explore it on Your own.




[h3]Developer Live Stream[/h3]
During the festival, we will live-stream the demo and talk about the development process, our inspirations and the technology behind it. :)
We will start the first live stream Tomorrow (7 February) at 7 pm CET. You could set up a reminder Here.
P.S We are not native English speakers so we hope you will forgive us our language mistakes during the live stream :)

[h3]Behind The Scenes[/h3]
We shared a "Behind the scenes" video where You could see How our work on the game looked like. We visited a lot of interesting places to scan objects into our game, but that's not all! You could watch the video here.

[h3]Play the Demo![/h3]
The demo is quite long and should give You over 1 hour of fun! We did everything to make it as best as possible but keep in mind that the whole game is still in development, so We are open for remarks as we will be still improving some elements.

[h3]Why wishlists are so important for Indie Developers?[/h3]
Small indie teams like ours (3 people / 2 full-time) in most cases do their marketing on their own. We are not different here, We spend days and weeks promoting our game otherwise, creating the game would have no sense. (without a final audience) The steam wishlist is used by steam algorithms to show the game to more players. Basically if you are adding the game to Your wishlist in some way you Vote for it.

Adding our game to wishlists gives us more exposure and we could spend more time on developing the proper game and less on marketing. :)

Hello! folk!

We are surprised at how much positive feedback we get from You on our discussion section! Thank You! Because of your feedback, we could improve the game even more before the full Release!

The Demo has now over 4000 downloads! Thank You for that we are waiting for further remarks and opinions! :) This is just a starting point as we are right before Steam Fest! Hige festival of game demos on Steam.

In the new version of the demo, we improved and fixed some elements basing on Your feedback!

The Demo is now also available On MacOS!


[h3]The End of The Sun Demo ver 30.01.2023. Change list:[/h3]

FIXES:

• Fixed problem with volume light on mac Ventura 13! Because of that, the game was unplayable on that macOS version. Now everything is working correctly. Read more here
  
  
• Fixed the shaky (up and down) player camera movements when using vsync. Read More Here.
  
  
• Fixed problem with clouds taking too much space at a special level when clouds quality was set on high or highest.
  
  
• Fixed problem with the screen resolution option. It wasn't saved between the main menu and the gameplay (That could make confusion about performance.)
  
  
• Fixed the rare problem of locking the character camera in a low position when investigating an object during a mission state change.
  
  
• Fixed the rare problem of the rainbow video effect when using investigate object very often.
  
  

IMPROVEMENTS AND NEW OPTIONS:

• Added an "invert Mouse Y-axis" option - It's now together with the invert gamepad option in the controls menu.
  
  
• Added alternative controls - You could control movements with arrows on the keyboard as an alternative for WSAD (If You would like to see other configurations let us know, we are considering adding the option of key bindings to the full version if there will be more requests about it)
  
  
• Minimum mouse/gamepad sensitivity could be now set to 0.1 (earlier minimum was 0.5)
  
  
• Some localizations and text fixes.
  
  
• Credits list update.

MacOS Version of the demo NOW AVAILABLE:
The game should have a good performance on macs with Intel processors. For M1/M2 processors for now the game is emulated from intel game version processors. (as for many games on Steam) We will try to provide dedicated apple silicon (M1/M2) compilation soon.
Here You could check out our recommendation about playing on Mac.
