Hello there !
The project is definitely not on hold, we’ve just uploaded a new demo and launched our pre-order campaign here: https://www.kunekune.fr/demons-of-asteborg-dx
Neofid Studios has always delivered. We’re a bit lacking in communication, as passionate developers, it’s not our strong suit, but we promise we’re working on it!
Thank you for your interest
The Steam version comes with the GBA build embedded in our own launcher, so the ROM itself isn't extractable, we keep it locked to avoid the file circulating freely.
If you want to play on real hardware, that's exactly what the GBA cartridge tier is for. Plays on any GBA or compatible handheld. Boxed and produced in France !
Thanks for your support !
I understand you all have reasons why you’ve chosen not to sell a ROM at this time.
But if you decide to make it available in the future I will gladly pay for it. Hope it will be considered after the game has been out there for a while.
I’ve bought your other digital releases and like to play on a mix of original hardware and emulators, but do not collect carts.
Funny because the reason I bought Astebros on Steam was so I could copy the ROM to all my devices. It's a shame that it is assumed that hiding the ROM will actually stop people that want to pirate the game. They're the most persistent in finding ways to crack games, this only hurts actual fans of your games.
