[UPDATED] Demo 3 Re-released


If anyone ever wanted to see what the original Demo 3 was like, here it is. The original release gets caught in a loading loop due to an improperly configured ini extension. That has been fixed for this rerelease.

The rest of the jank, and all bugs that would have otherwise been encountered in the original release, are intact. No extra bugs caused by the decompilation process have been discovered, but if that changes, I'll release a patch.

It's been over 6 years at this point, but now the original two-night demo will finally be in a playable state. This release is an important part of my history, and shame or no shame, I feel it's important to release this if for the personal value alone. Finally, I can settle this mistake once and for all. While I can't undo the careless actions from the past, I have and will continue to strive to be a better person moving forward.

I would like to give a special thanks to Blue Nova, fnmwolf, pete7201, ClickNinYT and 1987Kostya and most importantly, Mathias Kærlev, for making the tools that made this release possible. I've long since let go of my past grudge towards Kærlev. He had every right to accuse me of what he claimed I was trying to do, and I was the one that childishly turned it into a self-fulfilling prophecy. Merely apologizing for my past transgressions isn't enough, but at this point, I'm unsure of how I could make up for them. But I can at least say this: if you're reading this, Kærlev, I wish you the best with all your future projects.

And to everyone that's stuck by me all these years, in spite of everything: thank you, again, from the bottom of my heart. I'll be writing a more general update post soon, but for now: here's to a better 2022 for everyone!

EDIT: 1.0.2 had also been silently re-released as an optional download for the full game, however this also resulted in the HTML5 1.0 build being shown without any visible distinction from the download-only 2.0 build. For now, this version has been temporarily delisted until I can resolve it. Fixed. This does not affect the re-release of Demo 3 nor the original demo pack.

UPDATE: The Demo 3 re-release has been updated with the following change:

  • The game now uses hardware acceleration by default again.

Here's a peaceful little forest scene for this #screenshotsaturday, from the beginning of the game.

We made a lot of improvements on the Freezing Plains visual. Things like pine trees, tiny bushes, some rocks, and others game props!
