Truth Scrapper changes
It’s been just a little over a year since we first announced Truth Scrapper as part of the Six One Indie Showcase. Ever since, I have received messages. Many of them. “ADRIENNE,” they cry, “WE WANNA PLAY THE GAME!!! WE WANT TO INVESTIGATE THE MYSTERY AND MEET THE GIRLS AND FEEL THE FEELINGS. DEMO WHEN?!?!?!! ”
And today I’m happy to announce that the demo will be out… now. You can play it now. Like, immediately. In English, French, or Japanese. With a new trailer. You’re welcome. <3
Here are the important deets:
Takes place within a somewhat non-canonical version of day 3 within the game, to leap you right into the story with Amour and Betz both!
Some replayability/dialogue variation depending on memory choices
Around a half hour to an hour of play, depending on your reading speed
Approximately 10,000 words (ish)
Achievements!!!
Demo saves/progress will NOT transfer over into the full game because of the aforementioned non-canonicalness, but don’t worry, full game day 3 will be very different and you will barely even notice I promise!!!
You may remember that I originally wanted to get the demo out earlier this year, but I’ve used that time to bang out a bunch of bugs, do some polish, and get the demo localized. The French localization comes courtesy of Brandon Labonté, and the Japanese localization was handled by Kakehashi Games, who you may remember from ALSO handling the Japanese localization for In Stars and Time. And, yes, the full game will be localized into French and Japanese too. (And maybe more?? We’ll see!)
I am so excited for everyone to play Truth Scrapper finally! I hope you enjoy it. If you haven’t already, please don’t forget to wishlist the game on Steam! There’s a reason every indie developer says this really helps, and the reason is…. it really helps. So thank you.
BUT WAIT THERE’S MORE.
Played the demo and tormented by visions of a little Sosotte to call your own? Makeship has you covered! The Sosotte plushie campaign is NOW LIVE until June 28th; these will only be available for a limited time, so get one now if you want it, and maybe we’ll make more and other characters as well!
Do you like your girls little and sharp? Then may I point (hehoheo) you towards this lovely trio of Sosotte, Amour, and Betz pins, now available at the Yetee! Hold them. Admire them. Put them on your clothes and show them the world.
Thanks to the fine folks at Fellow Traveler’s Story Rich Showcase for letting me debut the demo AND trailer as part of the event, and all their amazing work in making this event happen!
