Demo Release Notes - Build 10 (Demo version 0.2.1)

Astra: Fading Stars Demo
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

Hello everyone!

About a year has passed since our last game update but... here we are! We're excited to announce the 0.2 release of the Astra: Fading Stars demo on itch.io which includes all the latest graphic/animation updates from our development builds. 

For a quick (under 1 minute) look on the generic game progress check out our new trailer below ðŸ‘€

Kilo has also started a devblog on the game, a highly recommended watch for anyone who wants a sneak peak into the past & future of the game:

Now... to the new demo, the most notable differences you'll notice if you've tried our previous version from last year are:

  • Rearranged and removed some cave areas making  navigation easier, signs are now also located in the cave that will provide a rough direction to the way out!
  • Reduced the difficulty of the battles given this is only the first area of the game
  • Introduced a simpler first flying enemy and removed the ranged attacker
  • Improved animations and graphics
  • Visual hints in areas where players can get stuck for a long time
  • Minor bug fixes

In brief, this release makes the cave feel more like a first game area than a middle one providing an easier transition to the game for the players.

All in all, it has been a large release addressing the main pain points from your feedback. Many thanks on that!!!

See you around ~~

The Dimension Omega team
