Demo go!
🕑 Added 2017-11-01 03:44:46 +0000 UTC Alrighty guys! Sorry it's a bit late in the day, but it seems like every time I thought we were ready, new issues popped up. So, this is the least bug-infested build I have so far!Please, pleeeease keep in mind, this is only a demo of what we're working on. I still have a handful of strange bugs to figure our, and some of the assets aren't full completed yet either. Crashes CAN occur (I just typically don't know what's causing them right now x33). There's a lot of stuff I'm still trying to learn, but there are a ton of things I'm just unable to implement (as much as I'd love to!). This demo gives a basic idea of what's more to come though.
ANYWAY, we hope you guys enjoy this little preview. It might take a little longer than a couple of weeks to get it fully operational (like I had previously stated), but we'll be working hard to get it done ASAP! Definitely let us know your thoughts about it!
ANNNND, I'll be resuming work on EA tomorrow too! So, expect updates for EA mid-month! Thank you all for your support and all the kind messages <3 It really helps out a ton!
NOTE FOR MAC AND LINUX USERS!
Apparently, this won't run on MAC, and I can't build a MAC version without a MAC computer >.> SO, you have to use WINE to open it. You can get WINE here >> https://www.winehq.org/ I'm really sorry about that inconvenience, as I had no idea.
OTHER NOTE FOR TEXT NOT SHOWING
Resizing the window seems to help with this issue, so adjust the window size, and hopefully, the text will appear. It's a weird bug, I know.
Oh yeah, as usual, top comment is the download link!

The links are down for now, and once the project is 100% done, I'll be messaging all my PAtrons for the months of October and November with instructions on what to do for the game~
Hey there. Any news on this puppy? 31 days have passed and the links are broken still. any estimate on when the full game IDEKA '17 will be ready?
Bruno Adamant
I think a good thing to add, if you can, is a 'hit' animation, cause I don't really know who is getting hit when they are. I'm fairly certain a 'hit' noise will be added at some point.
Bruno Adamant
The only issue I am kind of having is the resolution is too big, when I shrink it down to fit, its still kind of hard to read the text in battle. Is there a way to change that?
Brian Damiani
Hey Dyne, I know you said check back later today and that the link should be up and running but just a reminder cuz I know you're busy that the links are still down and I know you forgot that they expire after certain time but I would really like to download the game again so that way I can continue playing until the next update period and looking back through the stuff I see I'm not the only one other some new patrons as well it were unable to download it.
Brian Damiani
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! YOU JUST KEEP PROVING HOW AWESOME AND WONDEFUL YOU ARE!!!
DyneWulf
I forgot the links expired. Check back later today, and I should have them running again!
DyneWulf
The dialogue between the characters tell you where to get the key. If you played the 2016 IDEKA game, you'll know where to go, otherwise, you'll have to look around the manor a bit ;3
Brian Damiani
Dyne, I had to do a factory reset on my phone and lost everything, including all my sacrifices for EA. I went back to the last link for EA but it no longer works. Anyway you can help me out so I can get caught back up on everyone, and my Darius, before the next update? In the meantime, I'm gonna enjoy some Idkea!!!
Kindling
How do you use the key? I got as far as the first door that was open but all the doors are locked or blocked
Inari Industries
okay... Finished the patreon version of harold and spencer so that means its time for the IDEKA demo :3.... though I do have to say Spencer will always be my favourite, harold being the big cuddly bear. Give a note to The artist (It's cursedmark or something right? I'm realy sorry I don't remember) The emotions on Harolds face are perfect and just make me want to cry whenever I see them. Really well done. As for the story writing, Dyne, it's amazing. Never goiung to stop loving this novel, I can't wait for the next update to see where things go with harold!
DyneWulf
If you found the ice lever, you've found the torch too ;3
Typo-kun
Not working for me, though.
David
It tried to. But the report screen just keeps loading forever and I had to force to quit it.
Hyou Vizer
i found the lava lake room a ton of times but i didn't see any torch that was clickable at all to put in inventory to throw in the lava lake, still stuck O.o
Asio Doxos
Why not allow button mapping?
DyneWulf
Someone else is having a similar issue. Is it giving any kind of error when it crashes?
Your welcome :3
Raistlin
Can't believe I didn't find the lava lake =_=. Finished now, craving the full game!
David
Keep crashing during the first battle...When they tries to attack.
DyneWulf
I hope to have loading and whatnot more optimized by final release. I had just learned of one method to help right before I was ready for the demo >.> The combat stuff is still in the works with the animations too, so we hope to show off that stuff better too! And thanks for the feedback on the controls. These things have been through a lot of changes, as we try to optimize it. Originally, I had all movement set to the arrow keys with A and C as attack and Cancel, but it was suggest to change to WASD for movement so one hand would be on the mouse for clicking and one on WASD for movement. It's really a touch choice! Thanks so much for the feedback overall too!
DyneWulf
Hmmm, I thought her heal would heal HP at least (the animation for it is still... uuhh... broken), as for the healing potions, I don't think I got those implemented either. They exists, but I don't remember if they works as intended yet! I'll add that to my notes too!
DyneWulf
I'll let others know about this as well, and see if it helps them! Thanks for the info.
DyneWulf
CM has done a great job with the animation work, hasn't he?
DyneWulf
Thanks a bunch! We really have put a loooot of work into this :D
DyneWulf
Tooltip said it was lit? Woops x3 I'll make note of that!
DyneWulf
Well thanks! I'll try not to push myself too hard, but I really wanna get this stuff done :D
Raistlin
I agree about the controls. These should really be changed.
Vivienne
a bit clunky but it's a demo so that's expected, i really wish the movement buttons were the arrow keys or that the select and cancel buttons weren't on the left side since having to do everything with one hand is extremely frustrating. also, i don't have a gaming computer so it ran super slow and took a long time to boot up, then i remembered i had google open and once i closed it it ran much more smoothly. i also noticed in combat they had the same animations for both attack and skills and the animation kinda loops when the battle is won, dunno if that's a bug or not. other than that, i thought it was pretty fun; the puzzles were neat, i loved seeing all the characters from the last game, the art is beautiful and i'm looking forward to the finished product
Isa_Lion
Is anyone experiencing an issue where Kirin can't heal? Her using Heal Light and potions doesn't work...
Okay I found out how to fix it, you need to run game as Administrator from right click, even when your account is administrator

Can only see the text only from history "L" button
Ehm, I'm have an issue that text boxes are ampty ;(
Gutsyrabbit
Spoilers : you lit the torch using the lava..in the lava area :) . Then you use the torch to melt something :) Hope it helps
Sean
This is really good! I especially like the animation
Gaffgarion
Seems like it will be a lot of fun when its finished up! I like the effort you have put in here. Thanks for the demo!
Raistlin
Hmmmm I had what appeared to be a unlit torch, but according to the tooltip it was lit. Couldn't use it with anything so I threw it out of my inventory... did I just screw myself? XD
Kringer
I downloaded it and tried playing it on my pc, but there's no dialogue.
DyneWulf
Does it offer any kind of error message when that happens?
From what I played, it's really fun! I, however, ran into a problem where after the first battle in the forest, the game crashes. I can't get by it. I've restarted the game about 5 times and it always goes white screen then crashes right after I kill the slimes :(
NiozDude
Thx so much for the game really appreciate how much you care for the fans dont push yourselves to hard haste makes and all those other cliches you can think of😝
Hyou Vizer
first time ive found furry rats attractive
TiredFins
those jacked rats are quite, alluring.
M1Frank
does this have adult scenes in it?
DyneWulf
There -is- an ending to it, but the hallway area is where you'll find it!
Hyou Vizer
does the hallway maze thing lead to anywhere to advance the story? cause i keep finding a spot for it that has an open door but the game says it's locked when it isn't lol just as i post this i find the way to advance the story......smh nvm nope still stuck in the maze, i find that lava pool place but that's it, nothing else to advance the story =/
DyneWulf
Auuuugh, I wanna breath! But... cant yet!
DyneWulf
Hmm, one of my testers had an issue getting it through his virus stuff too. I'll ask him what he did to get around that when I see him tomorrow!
Kay will check it after I finish Dozer art ;3 Curiouse what inside demo :3
Hyou Vizer
OMG ITS A TURN BASED RPG?!?!?!?! :D I was thinking a tactics RPG but damn i was so close, yay this is my fav game genre, what a wonderful surprised <3
Tipmon
Fixed it, I alt-entered to full screen because the window was quite a bit off my screen and while full screen no text is shown. Once I alt-entered again and full screened it in windowed it worked just fine.
Tipmon
Playing on PC, Windows 64-bit. I downloaded it, redownloaded it, and ran it as Admin. It never shows any dialog. Characters come in and are highlighted and dimmed but there is no text.
DyneWulf
Does it not open on MAC?
DyneWulf
Hmm, are you playing on PC or Mac? Not sure what would cause it just to appear as a white screen.
DyneWulf
You should be able to resize the window for it. What resolution are you playing on?
Jay Paul Mayer
Breath Dyne. Always remember:/ the Sakura only blooms,/at the chosen Hour./ if you rush you risk everything; we'll be waiting when it's done. ;-) And look at you, getting a brand new haiku, hot off the press, out of me lol.
Goodmoon
