addedWhat will this Steam demo contain? The main addition will be online co-op for up to 3 players. Night 1 will be identical to the singleplayer demo. Night 2 is overhauled, and there will be an additional Night 3 with new content. However, like the singleplayer demo, this demo won't have randomly generated nights. But the full release will.
changedWhat will change between this demo and the full release? The full release will be composed of randomly generated "runs" to play through with your friends. This will include a shitton of customers, random silly/scary/funny events, items, monsters, traps and more.
changedWhat languages will the game be in? Right now, I'm looking toward English, French, Russian, German, Spanish, Japanese, Chinese (Simplified). There may be more in future, but for the time being, this is what I'm going for.

Like the single player demo, you take a shift at a rural gas station where you serve customers who could be doppelgangers, examine their ID, cross-check their details in the computer, and observe their behavior. One slip-up might expose a creature… or cost you your life.

In the upcoming multiplayer update, you’ll be able to work alongside up to 2 coworkers who can either assist with your tasks or get in your way.

I'd really appreciate it if you could leave any feedback, suggestions, or bug reports in the Steam Forum. Your input helps me iron out problems before the next release and may inspire features that could make the game even better!
