The Flipside

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

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!

I made a general survey for The Flipside for you guys if you want to fill it out:

I have tons more free time than I thought I would. :P Still won't post much for the summer, but still.

@Mr-Bad exposed my character design >:(

I've unlisted the game pages for "The Floating Islands", "The Floating Islands: Christmas Chaos", "The Rift CH1-4" and added them to this archive.

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.

I swear I haven't forgotten about this game, it'll come out someday.

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."

Wishlist the game: https://bit.ly/CritterCove

I freaking love dealing with this error message!

I drew some character's in the OMORI artstyle!

[Character list in article!]

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.
