Sunny joins the party! Surprise, huh? Well, that’s not it. For a while, they’ve been planned to become more than just story fodder. Now, they are actively involved in the story and stand beside their twin Renée for many parts of the game. Beware, though. Exploring a hostile and unknown place together may result in the two being separated in their journey together. Here are all 4 protagonists’ (idle) battle animations I made; the first two being from DT, the second being from DTTO, and the third being from DTB.

Sunny’s inclusion can mean many different things for the development of Demolitale: As planned and discreetly mentioned before, there will be two playable characters in at the same time, Sunny following behind their twin as they march forward into further into the caverns that we call the Underground. Sunny being playable also brings forth a new feature- as all protagonists have a unique puzzle/gameplay element they present while playing their game. This feature is music-based puzzle solving, akin to Zelda, but not quite as sophisticated. Here’s the current- albeit kinda rough- animation of them playing their flute. I will probably find a way to smooth it out in the future.

With this flute, they can also create status effects through the songs they play, which can range from WP restoration to various other effects that WP itself cannot achieve.
Let’s have some hype for Sunny!
As this is another devlog, and devlogs aren’t as common as minilogs and micrologs, I will post an advertisement to our Discord server for newcomers. Want to hang out with other Demolitale fans and meet the developers, get early or exclusive sneak peeks, and have some fun? Be sure to drop by our Discord server, which supports all 3 Demolitale games together! We’d love to have you here; just be sure to read and agree to the rules in the Welcome channel first!

That will be all for tonight. Thank you all for 820 followers, I continue to be dumbfounded by how many new folks come about and shoot us a follow almost every day. I hope you all are as excited as we devs about Sunny’s sudden spike in importance in our “little” universe’s story. Thank you for everything so far, and I’ll see you all next devlog!
