Demo Update 3

Shivering Hearts
A downloadable game for Windows

Hi everyone,

Wow, got pretty sick over the weekend ain't gonna lie. Helping relatives move house and working in the rain for hours on end got me pretty bed-ridden on Monday *sweat-drop emoji*. But I'm back into it.

I quite like uploading on Itch. Feels like I have enough space to say what I want.

On one hand I want to talk about all the new ideas I'm wanting to implement and to talk about the emotions tied to the landscape, but on the other hand I want to keep things a surprise. I'll try talk in broad strokes to not give away certain things.

Basically, I want to give players of the demo a unique experience at the end. One that builds up the story and the characters to come, a glimpse into the future if you will. But I also to want to provide a conclusive end to the story in the demo as like, a thank you to everyone.

The writing will also get much more personal than the main game.

The demo would be the first 1/3 (or half?) of the game up to a pivotal point in the story. But instead of waking up in your bed, you find yourself in a strange land and surrounded by corpses of other incarnations of Skye.

I'm going to be working for the rest of tonight, but it's already 6pm here in New Zealand. If I don't get it done by tonight, then I'll spend the rest of tomorrow polishing up everything and bug-testing to make sure everything works correctly.

Thanks again to everyone.

Stay tuned~

Kind regards,

Mischa
