Hope you all enjoy the demo, feel free to leave any kind of feedback!

Here's two new screenshots and some more information about the game. (read article)

New actual devlog coming on saturday.


I've been working on this game for quite a while now and it's still a lot left to do before it's finished.

But I'm working as hard as I can to get it done as soon as possible and with this being a solo project I hope you all understand it will take some time.

----------------------------------------------

Anyway, here's some answers to questions you might have:

Q: When will the game be released?

A: I do not know at this moment so the only thing I can say for now is: It's done when it's done.

Q: Will the game be available on any form of console?

A: I'm open to the opportunity if it comes up but for now this is mainly focused on PC.

Q: Which PC platforms will the game be available on?

A:

Windows:

This is the main platform I'm making the game on so this will always be the focus.

Linux:

I will be trying my best to keep a Linux version available.

This is currently being tested in a virtual machine on Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS.

I use an older version of Game Maker Studio (v1.4) to create the game, so if an unfixable issue comes up my only choice would be to upgrade to Game Maker Studio 2 (which I will likely do), if this happens, expect the Linux version to be delayed.

Mac:

I currently have no way to test the game on Mac so for now I will have to say that the game will not be available on Mac.

I am, however, open to the concept of a Mac release if the opportunity arises.

Q: How much will the game cost when it is finally released?

A: This depends on how much of my plans will be realized in the final version of the game and as the game is not really close to being finished yet, I do not have a set price in mind yet.

Q: Where and how often do you update us on how the development of the game is progressing?

A: I try to post devlogs every saturday.

I also post updates and sometimes short messages on Twitter:

And I have the oldest devlog for the game available here (still being updated):

https://forum.yoyogames.com/index.php?threads/zordak-new-demo-2020-02-01-windows-linux.43923/

There you can find very old images of how the game looked from the beginning and even some things that can not be seen anywhere else.

----------------------------------------------

That's it for all the questions I could come up with right now.

Feel free to post a comment if you have any other questions or feedback.

Anyway, once again, hope you all enjoy the demo and thanks checking out the game!
