Description Finally, after lots and lots of hard work, I have released my first version of my game demo. I'm currently receiving feedback and implementing it into my demo and will re-release the new version, once it's done. If you wouldn't mind, I would love for you to BETA my game and leave me feedback on it. I have taken it off the internet but I am editing it and willing to Dropbox it to anyone willing to play it. I felt embarrassed by it and took it offline but people have been asking for it so I have made it available this way for now and will someday soon put it back up. 

It's been 30 years since the last war ended. The people of the world are slowly trying to recover from its devastating effects, but signs of another war are beginning to show themselves. Strange occurrences have been happening throughout the different layers of the world; creatures are running wild and chaos seems to be spreading everywhere. Is it possible that the previous threat to the world has returned?

While all of this goes on, you live a quiet life in the Starkwood Forest; completely unaware of what's going on outside of your little patch of Forest. You're about to celebrate your 18th birthday with your parents, when a loud bang upon the door interrupts your party.

You soon find yourself on the run, fighting for survival. Discover secrets about your past as you travel the world and come to terms with your role in the upcoming war. Will you be able to help put a stop to the magical disarray that continuously throws the world into war or will you become just another victim?  


UPDATES TO DEMO: Added more emotions towards the death of parents, Darkened the background of text box, added a history menu, added more action to Underground/Mountains route, corrected some sound (laughter) issues, fixed some overlapping images, added in more info/corrected issues concerning Kaiden's wings and Dante's Necromancy Skills.

Hi Ibitz, just currently dl your game,  haven't tried it yet.

Ibitz In reply to sianic [2018-01-06 07:40:40 +0000 UTC]

Aww! Yay! Thank you very much. I really hope you will enjoy it!  
Making games is fun, but very hard and time consuming. 
I used a free software called "Ren'Py" and then, after almost 1 1/2 years, made all the assets needed for it. 
Had to have GUI, sprites, music, etc. It takes a lot of time, but is worth it in the end. 
I really appreciate you downloading it. Any and all feedback is welcomed and much appreciated. <3

Hey Ibitz! I just finished playing your game demo, I thought it was great as I felt myself immersed in your storytelling. Although I can't help but say that I had a hard time pin-pointing the time period/setting of the story and some of the dialogue felt a little off. Favorite character: Zander, he's super nice. Least favorite: I want to say Kaiden, but he seems sincere than anything. Sound effects were cool, as was the music. If I were to complain about anything, I'd say that the dialogue box could use a back button of some sort, in case you miss any dialogue from clicking through too fast. Otherwise, congrats on a fun game!

Thank you so very much for trying out my game and leaving me some feedback. I really appreciate it.  
I'm glad you felt immersed. I was really hoping to draw people in, so it's great to hear that. 
I never quite had a timeline or setting for the game. I was trying to go for a D&D style world (steampunk with magic). 
It's sorta like an alternate reality, with magical creatures and magic. It's a good point, though. I'll have to contemplate a setting/time.
Would you mind me asking if there was any particular dialogue you felt was off? I am working on fixing some of the pauses and a few misspellings. 
Yay! Another Zander fan. So many people pick on Zander for his appearance. He's my 2nd fave of my characters, so I'm glad you liked him. 
Haha. I'm honestly glad you said that about Kaiden. He's basically my "challenge" character. Most of the people in my family are 
like that; in that they drive you batty, but they're caring and sincere in their own way. So, I wanted to see how others would handle him. 
I'm glad you liked the sound effects and music. I was having trouble ensuring my music fit the atmosphere, so I'm glad it all worked out. 
I'm glad you mentioned that. I thought you'd be happy to know that I not only added a back button, but a history menu as well and will be updating my demo, soon.
Thank you for pointing out all of these issues you found and a HUGE thank you, and a hug , for leaving feedback on my game. <3

Your welcome, it was an honor! I guess I felt like the dialogue was rather modern for a medieval setting, but I wasn't sure if that's what you were going for. But a steampunk setting might clear that up a bit. I also noticed an earned achievement, the "not so itsy bitsy spider" I think it was called. How many other achievements are there? And one other thing, something that i found really cool was the silhouette of a major demon with the beady glowing eyes. It creeped me out a bit, and that's a good thing!

Ibitz In reply to HolyMolyCrowley [2017-11-27 01:28:48 +0000 UTC]

Ahh, that makes sense. I was worried it was just bad dialogue. Thanks for clearing that up. 
In total, there are 28 achievements; 7 for every route. I wanted to give people lots of reasons to replay my game. 
I'm glad you found him creepy. I am not great at drawing demons and wanted to give him a creepy aura, so I figured 
that making him all hidden and shadowy would be just as creepy.  
Once again, thank you for playing my game. Would you like to be listed as a Beta tester in my credits once the game is done?

HolyMolyCrowley In reply to Ibitz [2017-11-27 02:08:21 +0000 UTC]

Pleasure was mine! And if you feel compelled to add me as a beta tester, it would be cool! Although I really didn't do all that much. I just hope I helped, if even in the slightest.
And p.s. if you do decide to credit me, I'd like to do some fanart in return? Just send me a note and junk. Peace.

Ibitz In reply to HolyMolyCrowley [2017-12-02 08:20:12 +0000 UTC]

I'm definitely gonna credit you. I feel honored that you tried out my game and left feedback. 
It has really helped me improve my game. 
That would be so cool! It would be the first fanart of my game.
