Demons Within Update 7.5 devlog and BETA release date!
🕑 Added 2024-03-27 20:10:34 +0000 UTCHey hey!
Though I've been making a whole BUNCH of Patreon posts lately, I know a lot of them are WIP image previews and whatnot and it's actually been a while since I've done a devlog!
This special update we're heading to, which I boringly named 'Update 7.5' for coding purposes, already had all the art assets done and it was mostly writing. Well, even if it was 'just' that, I tried my best to live up to the artwork with it. We have just about 10k words of writing, which is the length of a usual update, dedicated JUST to the bad ending. For those that have been waiting and requesting it for a while, I hope it'll be a feast!
The writing went through all the usual processes. I wrote it, finished, went through reviewing, etc etc, and though coding it up was a little easier than usual because the CGs are easier to handle than expressions, I also had a bunch of small visuals in mind to go along with it and those took some time. Well, are taking some time, but they're almost done!
Because of that, I am pleased that I feel confident enough to announce that...
The BETA version for Update 7.5 will be coming out THIS FRIDAY, March 29th already!
I know it's kinda sudden, but it's almost done and I want to get it out ASAP! After the beta is out, I just need a little more time to fix up some things and sound everything up, which shouldn't be too complicated this time around, so I'm pretty confident when I say that it's likely that we'll see a Patreon release of this at some point next week! I'll announce a specific date when I'm sure of it, but look forward to that!
It's been quite the ride and a huge pleasure to write out this update to go along with Dangpa's amazing artwork. I hope people will like it! In the meantime, though, I've already been thinking up and planning stuff for Update 8 and the continuation of the story. Though this update will feature none of that, the next one will be full of events and surprises in that regard as well, so that should be pretty awesome too!
Even though this is a 'devlog', I feel like I haven't talked all THAT much about development stuff this time, but... leave it for the next time, then! I don't want this to be TOO big of a wall of text or no one will have the patience to read it :D
This is the news for now! We're so close!
Huge thanks to everyone that's supporting me in this endeavor, you guys are the absolute best!

Definitely plan on having more bad endings! The story consistency is the most important thing, though, so only when I find a good spot for it. :)

Thanks for the update its so dope that you take the tiem out to update your supporters on the dev progress. I'm looking forward to the bad ending. It also gets me thinking... Will there be more bad endings? It would make sense being that it still feels pretty early in the story when the first Bad ending takes place. I guess time will tell.
