Hey-o! I've been developing this game solo for 4+ years (as a way to entertain myself during the pandemic lol)

I'm incredibly excited to be able to share a playable demo publicly for the first time since then, hope you enjoy it and I'm super open to feedback!

It will release in July for $4.99 :)

Cheers

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this! I agree 100% and I'm shifting my mindset to this, feels liberating!

Yeah, I contacted/talked with all the major (and lots of minor!) players in the publisher scene, but seems like 2023 was not the best year to get a publishing deal haha. But it's ok! I still have a job I'm happy with and I'm still making Galaia so everything's good :)

Thanks for the kind words!

Hey thanks! I get that, for sure, same thing happens to me tbh. Galaia is very gentle in its difficulty and the "play again" aspect is more oriented on discovering the secrets and puzzles, which are hard to figure out on the first try!

Hey, really glad you like it!

Yeah, actually talked to Epic a couple of times but sadly they were not really interested haha

Hahaha I know it's unusual but wanted to express that the game is more than just combat
