What to expect in the demo:

  • Challenging precision platforming on par with the full games intended difficulty.

  • A variety of mechanics and obstacles to give the most accurate feel for how the game plays.

  • Limited player customization options, to be unlocked by playing through the demo.

  • Several thought-provoking page journal entries to be found and collected.

  • Two timed trials to test your skills against time and point targets.

  • Assist mode options to lower the game's difficulty.

How does the demo compare to the full game?

The demo is a relatively small vertical slice containing most of the key features of the full game; however, as not to spoil anything, the levels from the demo are unique and mostly separate from those that will be experienced in the full game.

The full game will have:

  • Over 300 platforming challenges to be conquered.

  • 5 orb abilities to master that allow for unique platforming.

  • Many more mechanics and hand-crafted environments to explore.

  • 50 page journal entries to be collected.

  • Over 20 outfits to unlock and customize the player with.

  • Over 20 timed trials to test your skills.

  • A full RPG-style story.
