The Demo 2.0 will release on 8th May 2026

There will be a full changelog around the time of release, so I'll be short – this new version of the demo matches the latest state of the game, and is as close as possible to what one day will be the full game.

This includes:

  • All balance changes

  • All bug fixes

  • Plenty of visual improvements (tone mapping for each act, object highlights on everything, new weapon sprites, and much more)

  • Most importantly – the mini-boss enemies!

The demo will contain the first 3 Acts of the game in full – including:

  • All 30 levels

  • 6 bonus levels (10+2 per act)

  • 3 of the mini-bosses

  • The first major boss of the game

Also you will have access to:

  • 4 player ships

  • 6 class 1 weapons

  • 5 class 2 weapons (including the new elemental plasma weapons and the unlockable boss weapon)

As a whole, I'm pretty happy with this new demo. It looks and plays way better than before, and the mini-bosses fill the acts before the main boss nicely!
