Regarding the demo.


I usually try to write these messages in a positive mood, even while saying not-so-happy stuff, but this time I have to come off clean.

We overestimated our abilities and gave out a release date that we couldn't realistically meet.

And I, thinking that it's all just a matter of motivation, nudged the facts a little to build up hype for the game.

Those actions have come to hurt us in the end.

So, let's see what's actually done and what you can expect in the demo;

  • Phase 1, the main reason this demo exists at all, is not yet fully finished.

    Out of the 15 turns, only ~10 are good to go.

  • While True Lab is finished Map-wise, the Amalgamate battles are very far from completion.

  • Waterfall will be split intro 3 sections, only the 1st of which is done and only it will appear in the demo.

    The 2nd section, being almost fully original, was never intended to be included.

  • Well, at least the intro and menu are done.

This all means one thing.

The demo is delayed to the 10th of November.

Even then, we might not meet the expectations we've built up.

Everything out of game (Spotify Soundtrack release and the Youtube videos) is still going to release as originally planned.

And before you go in the comment section and complain, keep in mind that we're just a small group of people, not a professional development team.
