| DEMO TRAILER 2.0 | 2025-01-06 | DEMO TRAILER 2.0 ENJOY! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2984030/Death_In_Abyss_Demo/ HAPPY NEW YEAR BTW. WISH YOU ALL A GREAT 2025! |
| Demo Update - September 2024 | 2024-09-16 | Hey, made some changes to the demo! v.10009 -Made lazer attacks more readable. -Some visual changes to the Player UI. Should be more intuitive to understand how your health works. -Removed Player i-frames. Feels odd to dodge through attacks. Example with Nightdrifter tentacle attack; you could just dodge right through it without taking damage. This change is on trial, let me know if it is a good change or not. -Adjusted spawn amount + respawn time on Tumor Islands. -Adjusted world colors. -Adjusted sounds and music for some creatures. Cheers everyone for playing and for providing your awesome feedback, I read them all. -André New track https: |
| 3 weeks since demo launch, thank you for playing! | 2024-07-31 | Hey! In case you missed it, the demo went live 3 weeks ago. Here's the trailer: Post-release, the demo has been played by 1500 people, and registered on 5000 accounts! Thank you everyone for playing and providing your awesome feedback. You help make the game as cool as it can be. It's soon been 2 years since I started this project, so getting to this point is sick. But man, I must say, I wish I waited like 2 weeks with launching it! Steam recently launched a big update which give devs way more tools for their demo page. Quite bad timing. :P -- Made some changes to the demo: -Reduced total of eyes on Nightdrifter from 6, to 4. First phase take |
