The free demo of this game is available until the end of December 2024 as part of the Xbox Indie Game Fest Demo Event.
I enjoyed the demo of this game and am looking forward to its full release. Having spent long over an hour on it the first time, I decided to make a walkthrough video on my second playthrough and just go for the important parts, leaving out most of the notes and side-exploration, of which there is quite a bit more in the demo. I messed up my second take and died in the boss fight because I hadn’t noticed you need to watch the floor for a clue where to stand when the spiders come down. I messed up my third take being caught by the giant. I did the same in my fourth take and at that point I decided to just leave it in, as everything else went as planned, and at least it shows you that this game is fairly forgiving when you make mistakes.
