As we hinted in our last update, there were a few more things we had wanted to do with the game if we had extra time. So we decided to reward everyone with… | 23372972 | |

| Community | Demonschool fan art extravaganza Hello, friends! The response to Demonschool has been great, and we've heard from a lot of folks who see themselves in some of these characters (nobody really sees themselves as Jem, for some reason), or enjoy their friendships, or their activism, or simply beating up demons. One side effect of all this is we've gotten the most fan art of any game we've ever released. We thought we'd share some… | — | |
| Community | Behind the scenes with Demonschool. We've got devlogs! Hey folks! Long ago we promised you devlogs, and we've finally made good! We went a bit extra on it and turned them all into videos. Tonally, we tried to split the difference and make something accessible that game developers might also find interesting. We did five of them, each around 3 minutes long, and hopefully they give you a nice window into the creative processes behind Demonschool. Dev… | — | |

| Community | Demonschool Devlog #0: Burn status Like many tactics games, Demonschool has a number of status effects. Some of them are old standards. There's Poison, which reduces a character's HP by 1 per turn, or Stun, which keeps a character frozen in place until they are healed. Others are tweaks on effects we've seen elsewhere. Doomed, for example, kills the inflicted character within three turns unless they're healed, regardless of how… | — | |
