Hello everyone!
Almost a year ago I shared with you all a demo for Post Trauma. The reception it got was incredible, much more than I expected, which made me very happy. That said, I want to share that at the end of this weekend’s Steam Scream Fest, Post Trauma’s demo will no longer be available on Steam. This is good news, don't panic! I'll explain why below.
I made the demo in a very short period of time, and in order to have something playable, I used a lot of programming tricks. I don't regret doing it this way. The idea was to release a demo that would show the potential of the game I had in mind and see if people would be interested in playing something like this. And you have proved that it is.
During the last year I have continued working on Post Trauma every day. The whole game has been remade in Unreal Engine 5, so updating this demo is not a viable option as a single developer. The quality of the game as of today is far superior to what you see in the demo and I am very proud of what Post Trauma has become.
So, why am I going to disable the demo on Steam?
Simply put, the reason is marketing. I have very good news that I will share soon, but for now what I will tell you is that as more people are introduced to Post Trauma, I want them to see the game in its best state. The demo is very good as a concept, but it has shortcomings that new players may assume represent the final game experience.
To close this post I will say: to those of you who want to replay the demo, don't fear. After it’s removed from Steam on Tuesday, Nov 1, the demo will still be available on itch.io and I promise to bring you a new and better demo in the future.
Thank you very much for your support!
Roberto
