changed"What's up with the jumpy game, fox man?"It takes a little bit longer! As you might know, Eversleep was meant as a challenge to myself to create a commercially viable game in 30 days! And while I kinda-sorta made that goal (plus around 14 days, oh well) I kinda grew attached to the darn thing and wanted it to be really cool! As such, I'll be taking some additional time (mostly to avoid holiday season as well tbh) to not only boost the content a little bit, but also to give the game the treatment it deserves (like a full-on custom soundtrack by the amazing Knasibas !) So to make up to everyone and to give you a good idea on the current state of the game, I decided to update the free demo version to include all the bells and whistles from the final release version!
addedA new stage to play!The new demo now has an additional stage for you to try out! I'd highly recommend not playing on an empty stomach though! 🍡🍡🍡

addedA new soundtrackThe great Knasibas has blessed Eversleep with his sick tunes! Step by step, I'll be able to remove the current library music by his original compositions! For now there's 3 tracks made by him in the new demo version!
changedAn actual tutorial!What do you mean "a simple overlay for the first 10 seconds of gameplay is not enough of a tutorial"? Fine, have it your way then!
fixedA ton of additional fixes and additionsThere's also a ton more stuff that we fixed and added, especially in terms of level design and structure! Like this amazing change to the level design in Stage 1 Act 1! Applause, please!

"What's up with the jumpy game, fox man?"

It takes a little bit longer! As you might know, Eversleep was meant as a challenge to myself to create a commercially viable game in 30 days!

Speedrun Mode + A Special Guest

Speedrun Mode has been activated for the demo version to give you an idea on how it'll work in the final version! This part is actually still a bit WIP, so only Any% runs have been made available for now! You get those glods, yeah! And make sure to share your best times on Twitter and Discord if you like! ❤ But wait, there's more! In Speedrun Mode you can play as one of the 4 upcoming guest characters! Play as Toree - the cute little birb from Toree3D / Toree 2 from indie developer SIACTRO! They're super fast, can't attack and die in one hit - just like in the game they originated from! And if you like what you play, make sure to check out Toree3D and Toree 2 as well!

There's also a ton more stuff that we fixed and added, especially in terms of level design and structure! Like this amazing change to the level design in Stage 1 Act 1! Applause, please!

I really hope you enjoy the new and improved demo! I can't wait to see what you think and I'm super excited to show you the final game when it's done 💖

Thank you so much for playing!
