DEMO UPDATE 2.0

Hi, everyone! It's been a while (since we first saw you), and we've been hard at work on a brand new demo for Shoe it All! Boots may be for walking, but in this fully rebuilt Demo 2.0 shoes are made for slinging and running... SPEED RUNNING THAT IS. Steam post image

That's right folks. We're introducing a new, fully-playable mode in this update called"Hermes Run". In Hermes Run, you'll be tasked with completing every single level in the demo (some of which are brand new!) as fast as you can without stopping. This is a truly all gas, no breaks experience. Infinite shoes, infinite speed, infinite runs. Can you beat our best dev time? Steam post image

Starting at 0:00 UTC on Saturday, May 16th we're going to be hosting weekly *announcer voice* SPEE RUN SATURDAYS.

Test your mettle against others in the community to see who can come out on top. Join the official Amberbite Games Discord to show off your runs, strats, and earn bragging rights as the winner of each tournament will receive a free copy of the game once it releases on Steam! The demo itself has also been fully revamped with additional levels, more secrets, and improvements across the board. As such, we've unfortunately had to start everyone over from scratch with your progress. Since we're ripping off that band-aid, we also want to mention here that demo progress will NOT convert to full-game progress either. We also added boomboxes to certain levels that will play some pretty sick tunes while you grind out your new best times!

We hope to see all you SIA enjoyers swinging (from the chandelier) and slinging over in our Discord soon!
