Still alive!


Hello, Octo here! It's been quite a while since the demo version release, and I'm only now finding the courage to write something in the devlog, haha, I hope you'll forgive me for this.

The development of "Death is..." continues, and although it's moving slower than during the jam, I haven't lost hope to release the continuation of the game soon.

Perhaps you don't know, but originally the demo was supposed to be longer and contain at least three different scenes and a few more characters, but in reality, meeting the jam deadline turned out to be more difficult, so I had to cut even the demo, not to mention finishing the whole game.

This is my first game and I couldn't realistically assess my capabilities due to inexperience, but now I know how complex and lengthy the development process can be, and I'm glad that I managed to finish at least this small excerpt and show it to you.

So, right now I'm continuing development and plan to release a new, expanded demo version soon, the one it was supposed to be originally.

I've completely redesigned the main character, Tristan, now he looks different and I'm very pleased with the result, can't wait to add colors to his sprite!

In the updated demo version, you'll also meet a new character, but for now I can only show these sketches. A mysterious type, isn't he?

I'm also finishing the script and simultaneously creating collage backgrounds for new scenes. This requires a lot of time, because I cut out and arrange all these small details by hand for many hours in a row to achieve the perfect result. I don't always succeed and sometimes have to roll back or start from scratch, it's an inevitable process, but I know for sure that everything will work out in the end, the main thing is not to give up.

After all, I managed to create this demo of a demo once before, haha.

I'm also not giving up because I saw the analytics for "Death is...", and, my god, you guys are so wonderful! I can't believe my first little demo (not even a full game!) has already been downloaded 129 times??? I thought it would be seen by 1.5 people, one of whom is my husband, haha, wow...


I want to say a big thank you to all of you for being here, I'll do everything possible to make this game come out as soon as possible!

I would also be very happy if you shared your impressions of the game, because despite the number of downloads it doesn't have a single comment, and I don't know if this is because it's currently very short and confusing or because nobody liked it? :D

Stay tuned <3

Get Death is...(DEMO)
