I've recently noticed that "Unfinished Demos" are a thing now.

[Read the article before voting!]


MountBound did one.

Rotten Shards did one.

Project: TYRANT sorta did one, but it was a joke.

So I was thinking, should The Flipside do one as well? Here's my reasoning:

The content of the demo is nearly done. I just need to finish up Shadow City. And the only thing that IS missing is the OST, which is going to take a while for reasons that are none of your business. So would you guys be interested in that? Or should I just wait until it's fully done?

I worry that if I release an unfinished demo, people will ignore the "unfinished" part and judge it purely off of it's unfinished state.

It'd also help me to see if the game is worth going forward with-

No. Even if I get feedback like Lucid, I'll still make this game because the people who might hate it can go suck a lemon.

What I have is good. No, I'm not coping. (i think)

In any case, which do you think I should do?

  • Wait until the demo is done fully.

  • Release once the main content is complete!

My reaction to @Mr-Bad 's cover of "THE OG" from @TheLinguini 's "The Underwalk".

I made a thingy.

(Everything here is subject to change.)

Madeline is the main protagonist of the mountain climbing platformer, Celeste. The game has been praised for its visuals, gameplay, and introspective narrative. The game's creator Maddy Thorson confirmed that Madeline is trans in 2020.

(no clue what to put here)

Dive into the cozy post-apocalyptic open world of Critter Cove!

Gentleman Rat Studios (@GR-Rob ) describe it as “a little bit Animal Crossing, a little bit Stardew Valley. Maybe even a little bit Windwaker, too."

@Mr-Bad It sure ain't my best work, but I'm still proud! :D

By jove! The GJ user guy in a red shirt reached 300 followers! A most impressive milestone indeed! What a chap!

Mae Borowski is the main character of Night in the Woods! It's an adventure game that tells the story of her return to her hometown of Possum Springs. She was confirmed as canonically pan in a social media post by the game's creator Scott Benson.

Did some concept art last night.

First one is a bird enemy, second is a NPC for a town later in the game.
