Today is the day! We are glad to share this first glimpse of the world of Hypnos with you.
Welcome, make yourselves at home. We've been sweating bullets over this demo; showcasing a game like this is a perpetual balancing act. But Ashes, we are having a blast working on it! Sure, the segment of the game in this demo will change for the final release. Some areas are closed and some NPCs are missing, but you'll definitely enjoy exploring and interacting. The rest will come later, along with a few surprise systems. We can't wait! In the meantime, here's some information: It turns out that we won't be doing a Kickstarter after all. Why? It's just too much work, boss! We would rather focus on the project for now than spreading ourselves too thinly by attempting to run a campaign alongside it, which would inevitably be exhausting and exceed our capacity. While not as impressive as a successful Kickstarter, we have found solutions that are more reliable. We may consider Early Access further down the line, if we feel that we need more time to polish the project or if we want to include more content within the available time and budget.
What do you think? We hope that playing the demo will give you an idea of what we're preparing for you, and that you'll want to come back for more! If so, add the game to your wishlist to boost its visibility and spread the word! The Nameless City awaits.
