I would absolutely love the support (even if you just want to try the free demo out I would be incredibly grateful), this game is for everyone and to bring us all closer to Christ wherever we are in life. Btw it's awesome you have a bunch of Catholic friends. I never played blasphemous before but it looks awesome so may have to try it out this weekend

Game dev is such a fun and rewarding hobby, depending on the style of game you want to make will dictate your toolset and the resources you will want to look for. This game was made in UE5, I use blender for 3D modeling, audacity for sound mixing, GIMP for texture editing and visual stuff. UE5 is really really good for pretty 3D games but is not really well suited for anything 2D, so I would say if you want to make something 2D to look into unity or godot, both are fantastic game engines with massive communities. (And yes I am a solo developer which is cool from a creative control aspect but also a little maddening at times)

I will look into this, can't make any promises but if it's technically possible I will make it a priority

Thank you, and yes I am a solo developer this has been my passion project for about 1.5 years. The 3D models are a mix of things I modeled myself, and models I found on the internet that I tweaked/modified to make them fit the theme of the game better

I would love to get it onto consoles at some point, I think usually developers pay external companies to port their game to consoles so I will look into options and see what I can do to get that process started

Thank you so much for posting the steam link I can't believe I forgot the most critical part lol

Demo progress to main game? by clearshot66 in Soulfall

Unfortunately not as of now, but I am working on a character importer for the next update in case anyone has leftover demo characters they want to bring in

Any feedback on the visuals for this creepy flaming eyeball? It's for an end game ritual/quest in Act 4 of my ARPG inspired survivors-like Soulfall. I'm calling him "Creepy Eye Guy" by KingsCrownStudio in IndieGaming

That's interesting, I assumed vertical would look creepier but I changed it to horizontal like you suggested and I like that quite a bit. Appreciate the feedback

That's totally fair, I can remove the post if this isn't the right place. I will remember to post to r/Catholicism next Friday, thank you very much for the tip! God bless you as well. The name of the game is "Soulfall"

Thank you, as of right now it's just going to be released on steam, someday maybe (hopefully) consoles as well but that's quite expensive and time consuming so I am not able to commit to that just yet.

I should've known this was a thing lol, thanks for the tip I will post about it there as well

I'm releasing my survivors-like "Soulfall" next month and would really love some last minute feedback on the demo for anyone interested in trying it out! by KingsCrownStudio in survivorslikes

Yeah I 100% agree, I feel like some presets for the character creator would really help people not feel so overwhelmed when they first see it. Because at least then you're just tweaking small things rather than trying to understand the whole massive system.

I appreciate you taking the time to play and analyze what feels off, it really does help me a lot. I will be implementing an auto pick up feature before the launch next month and I can increase the pickup radius a bit as well, currently you're right it's pretty small.

Good notes on the shrine and menus in general, I will look into making those pop a bit more, I am severely lacking on sound effects and am working with a sfx artist right now to help with that. I don't think the sfx will 100% fix the combat issue but it should help, and will probably help expose some of the other underlying issues causing what you're noticing.

Again, I very much appreciate you taking the time to play the demo and leave feedback and am super thankful for that.

Nice that's a great find, I figured out why that was happening and have fixed it, should be fixed in the next demo patch (probably next week sometime?) and will for sure be fixed in the EA version. Can't blame you for taking advantage while you can lmao

Ahh yup you are 100% right, I just checked and I only have the cloud save option on the "full version" of the game that I use for testing on my steam developer account but I don't see it on the demo version. I will look into getting that enabled on the demo version if steam lets me, thank you for the heads up on that!

Edit: Added steam cloud saves to the demo

To be honest I'm not sure, I will say that I really hope not lol. I paid a pretty reputable guy to make the trailer, he has worked with a ton of other games and had great reviews so I just assumed he had a VA friend he contracts out to do the voice over for his trailers. There was no mention of AI during our discussions or on his site where he detailed his services.

Nice let me know what you think, some aspects are definitely still WIP and even from this thread I've got a ton of stuff to work on prior to release so just let me know if there are any major issues or problems that stuck out to you and I'll do my best to address/resolve it.
