Devlog #4: Extended Demo

A Cottage Story
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

Okay here’s the extended demo, here’s some changes that were made:

  • Added 5,000+ words
  • Screenshake
  • Updated effects, sound and music
  • New characters
  • Some text alterations

There might be another update to put some extra sprites for minor characters like the other satyrs or gnome AND THE OPTION TO TOGGLE SCREENSHAKE IF I CAN FIGURE IT OUT!!! >:((( but I just wanted to get this one out first and foremost.

The extended demo cements some final design choices such as the ability to flirt with every love interest (although there will be some *ramifications* if you carelessly flirt). It’s easier to obtain certain characters’ endings if you only focus on one but I wanted to give players flexibility in this regard. Of course that’s not going to be important until the full game but yeah!!

That’s about it for now, there’s probably not gonna be another demo extension in terms of content since I’m just gonna try to get the full game out. Thanks for being patient and I hope y'all enjoy the extended demo!
