Honk, Cook, Deliver Gameplay in Dosa Divas and Demo Update

Hi all,

We're getting close to release of Dosa Divas on April 14th! It's a narrative turn-based combat RPG all about cooking delicious meals, reconciling with loved ones, and rebuilding communities.

You can play the demo which is the first hour and a half of the game and SAVE file will carry on over to the full game when it comes out. We're still polishing and fixing bugs and adjusting things as we see them. Demo has been updated to include some text size adjustments for better Steam Deck comfort as well as some other bug fixes and better usability tweaks.

Here's a video showing how Goddess the sentient mech can honk their horn to take food orders from hungry villagers, find ingredients in the world, barter with Kabi the traveling merchant, or recover some ingredients from battles against Lina's goons who are out to banish home cooking and take over the world with more convenient and bland food in tubes called LinaMeals. Yuck!

Full patch notes:

• Center align buff tooltip text
