Hello Steam, We've been teasing the release of a demo for the past month, and it happened this week. Keys for the first chapter of Lightstep Chronicles were sent out to a few curators and those members of our community who asked for them, and we are excitedly waiting for their feedback. This will be the first time someone who's not a member of the dev team or our close friends and family play the game, which is a bit of a milestone. Fingers crossed, the first community playtest will result in some very insightful comments by the next time you hear from us. Hopefully, we'll feel confident enough for a more public demo showcase. [h1]Devlog[/h1] As promised, this is what we did in the past week: - additional programming for the Simulation Chamber scene gameplay - nature simulation animations - framing and programming the dialogue - adding more zoom zones and interactions to the Control Room scene We didn’t work on a bigger better 4k trailer because it's more important to finish a new build of the game right now.

There is a big chance that the game will take off just as the comic book ends, which is pretty poetic and we didn't even count on it originally. It makes us happy. Oh, and we love how the Dark Horse Comics team describes this issue, it really accentuates the Wibbly Wobbly Timey Wimey moments in the Lightstep Universe - what even is time? "Relativity encounters immortality, and friends who have become old enemies are reunited in a quest for a secret that may save the galaxy."
