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!

I will say I've at least made some progress since the last devlog—mainly implementing the interaction system. My next goal is to implement loading and deloading rooms, and perhaps even enemies.

I just gotta lock tf in.
