PLOT

I'm hoping to release a demo at some point in late Q1 or mid-Q2 of 2025. The demo will be entirely lucid world and not the real world.

When it releases there will be things such as a development retrospective video, a development museum similar to ULTRAKILL's "Hall of Shame", a PDF detailing Lucid's development along with showing concept art for the game, and MAYBE a book version of the game for those non-gamers on a platform such as Wattpad.

FAQ:

Q1: Why is Lucid meant for over 12-13?

A1: Lucid has a lot more serious tone in moments that make it so if you want to understand it, you should be maybe over 12. But you can still enjoy it if you're younger with the other main focus being comedy.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q2: When can we get some screenshots or a trailer for Lucid?

A2: There are currently two teaser trailers for Lucid. A demo trailer will come along with the demo which is expected in either the spring or early summer of 2025 as for screenshots, there are some on the gamepage.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q3: When will Lucid be released?

A3: I'm not sure. Lucid is turning out to be bigger than I first expected. While the wait will be worth it, I will make a release date trailer once Lucid is entirely complete. There will be a trailer when each section of the game is done showing off new areas!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q4: Will Lucid be paid?

A4: No, that fact does pain me slightly due to the fact this amount of effort and hard work will be free. However, it is mainly free due to the use of RPG MAKER MV's RTP assets.

NOTES:

Lucid prides itself mainly on its story and music. While I will try to make the battle system as fun as possible, it's not the main priority. So if you want something more combat-focused, I HIGHLY suggest you check these games out as they have more focus and story.
