New demo available for Next Fest!

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

It has finally begun! Steam Next Fest is officially live!

This is our very first time participating in an event of this magnitude, and honestly, we are incredibly excited. We have dedicated the last few months to preparing the best possible experience for you. If you want to compete, test your skills, and help us shape the future of the game, come check out all the new features we’ve prepared for this special demo!

New Characters Available: Shade & Lisa!

We have expanded the select screen for this festival! Now, you can test your strategies with two new members who bring different dynamics to the gameplay:

  • Shade: Master of shadows, whose favorite color is Purple.

  • Lisa: Bringing control and stability, her favorite color is Green.

New AI Under Testing!

Anyone who played the previous demo will definitely notice a shift in how the AI behaves. We have reworked it so it’s not overly complex while still holding its ground during matches without becoming completely overpowered. After all, if the AI is invincible, the game loses its fun!

The previous 10 difficulty settings have been expanded into 15 distinct levels. We are still fine-tuning the balance, but they are far from impossible; in fact, the transition from one level to the next is much smoother now.

Details That Matter (QoL)

We went back to several areas of the game to improve the user interface and Quality of Life:

  • Clearer Menus: The navigation arrows are now orange, gaining visual prominence and a brand-new responsive animation. It is now much easier to distinguish between selectable options and toggle menus.

  • Fixed Audio: We blocked unintended interactions within the toggle menus. The game now triggers the correct audio feedback, preventing misclicks.

Your Voice Matters: We Need Your Feedback!

We are in the final stages of development, and every single opinion is crucial to ensuring we deliver the perfect game at launch. We have created a dedicated topic on our official Steam forums to gather your thoughts, bug reports, and suggestions.

Feel completely free to write in either Portuguese or English — I will personally read and analyze absolutely everything over there!

Access the Feedback Forum Here: Official Suggestions & Feedback

Thank you so much for your continuous support. Download the new demo, have fun, and we'll see you at the game's official launch!
