6/11/25 Devlog: Demo Talk

Friendly reminder — this game is being worked on. It's not dead, and it ain't dying. Anyhow, onto today's devlog, going over the demo for this game, with a side order of the first level's concept art!


Demo Features

Behold, everything the demo will have:

  • Playability!

    Shocking, I know.

  • Try out Garand Magus before its full release!

  • Two levels to play through!

    Originally it was gonna be just one, but then I realized that be underwhelming, so I tried to make it decently-whelming! Yes, these are the first levels of the full game, too.

    • Level 1: Greenwood Woods

      This is the level you saw in the concept art at the top of this post, and was originally gonna be the only level in this demo. Here begins your journey. This level will feature a variety of Bandits and Shadow Archers for you tackle. At the end, you will have made it to the next level, deep near the heart of the woods...

    • Level 2: Wizards' Sanctum

      An ancient temple-like castle once belonging to the Elemental Wizards who created the Chaos Relic. This is where you'll get the Map of the Fragments, which'll allow you to uncover the locations of the Chaos Fragments. However, the castle is guarded by stone golems, commanded by Gertrude Stonemoss, the personification of the Earth Fragment. Beat him and you shall gain both the map and the fragment, and yes, he is a bossfight.

  • Other Features

    • A title screen!

    • An opening cutscene relatively inspired by the one from Undertale — but blue instead of sepia!

    • And more to come!


If you thought the list was too short then don't worry — next devlog will be sure to be an 800-word essay. /silly

Anyhow, that's all for this devlog. Now I must get back to programming this demo! Until next time, folks!

Huntress of the Web — GJ Style

Behold, my attempt at something for #GameJoltColors25. She's a new OC of mine — an insectoid black widow huntress who lost her extra pair of arms in a fight with her ex. If you got a good name for 'er, share it with me!

So... summer break is almost over, and I've barely made any progress on this game since the last devlog. What's the holdup? Well... I've been busy maining Taph. In other terms: Forsaken peak, Taph peak, and Jason mains hate me.

Happy Birthday, lil' Mags! 🥳🎉

Behold, a birthday present for @ThePinkGlitch 's frog goober, Maggie! Also features my girlfriend in the second and third image because it's her birthday, too.

Enjoy, Glitchyyy! ^^

I'm gonna say it now.

I've been going through the stages of grief because of a breakup — been that way for three weeks. And today cometh acceptance.

I drew @MemeManOfficial because it's fun !! :>

So I got to level 50 Taph — hell, I accidentally went one level higher. So, uh, new devlog tomorrow, y'all! Stay tuned!

My favorite video game robot? Welp, if I don't answer this one then am I really RoboKingsley?

Put it simply: Axis from Undertale Yellow.

He's such a silly little robot. /p
