There's a screenshot earlier in the thread of it being in 4K, not sure why the demo is limited
edit: Derp, it was just a 4K TV, doesn't mean the game was in 4K, I'm silly.

Thanks for that. I just hopped on the site and backed it thanks to your video. Looking forward to it.

Fffffuck I need to play this

Someone get this man a code!I only pledged $28, so no
Exactly my thought, this is intended for someone who is a fan of the Igavania games .
Iirc you backed more until the wiiU version was announced, right?I only pledged $28, so no

Do you still need a code?
I've got one but since I'm on a mac, I can't do much with it.
Just FYI I was able to use the directional shard action with E
Z X C V map to the face buttons, E is the right stick shard action, 1 is LB and 0 is RB (for sorting through the item categories)

Sweet, got my code. Will DL tonight when I get in!
Nice job comparing a pre-alpha progress demo to a completed game like Ori.
So I watched a couple of videos of people playing the demo, and now I really regret not backing this. This looks exactly like what I expected and wanted so far, which is really encouraging when it's this early in production.
I had no idea you got spells and stuff from killing certain enemies. I thought it was just gonna be items ala SotN, not extra stuff like the Sorrow games. That's fucking rad.

I usually don't take codes in this situation, since I really can't promise that I can do anything about it, but if it's completely useless to you I could at least have a look.
The WiiU and Vita versions, yes (Incidentally, the only consoles released after 2010 that I own
).I may just do that. Not for the demo or any beta (I don't care about that) but I do want to OST.
I had no issue finishing the demo with KB/M.
I'd add that 1 and 0 act as LB/RB in the inventory.
Oh don't worry about it.
I backed the kickstarter so I could get a physical for PS4 as well as a the Vita version.
I really can't do anything with a PC key as I don't play PC games at all.

They've stated that Mortes don't have shards.
Buers have shards that provide a stat boost when equipped.

Still blowing my mind that I am playing an Igavania in 1920x1080 and it is silky smooth man the final game is going to be something else!
Also, pleasantly surprised that this takes place outside the castle. From the kickstarter i thought the entire game was going to take place in the castle. Glad to see they are stretching out w environments!
Love love love that animation when she gets a shard and it's a full screen image of stained glass around her.

According to Igarashi everything but Morte has one in the demo.

If anything, you can use it as an opportunity to educate your colleagues at PC Gamer who don't understand this is one of the first playable builds ever and doesn't represent the final product, so they shouldn't be reviewing it like one.
Just finished playing the demo, game is slick and fun as hell. So glad I backed this!
Had to restart the demo once after the game stopped responding to the Steam Controller (wouldn't even bring up overlay) but other then that no major problems, just a few visual glitches here and there. Was ecstatic when I found a hidden item behind a breakable wall upon 2nd play. Demo is very easy but just right for the very first area of the game. My only real complaint is that the directional fire felt a bit weird using the Steam Controller trackpad, but that might just need some configuration on my/community's part. Maybe click to fire?
I need to sign up for the forums and tell Iga not to touch the tutorials though. They're quick and simple right now; no need for lengthy cinematics.

I had a little trouble with it as well, but it worked on my second playthrough. Click to fire is a good idea, I might have to try that. Otherwise I thought the default gamepad configuration worked fine.
Gimme the option to turn them off and figure things myself but the tutorials were ok. Just let me keep moving while they show up.

Backed the game glad he did not change his vision to please the western audience unlike some others..
The one thing I saw in the demo vids that I watched that I was a little iffy on was the cinematic intro for the boss fight. I'd much prefer the old style of walk into a room and "oh shit there's a boss!"
Thankfully it wasn't too long or full of stupid dialog, but I could see that not being the case for fights that are more important to the story. Can you skip the cinematic in the demo?

Love the demo. Played it twice now and was delighted to find stuff I didn't the first time round (mostly shards). It is a bit rough right now though I do think the game is heading in the right direction. Glad I backed this. Those people who think it controls weird have probably never played SOTN or haven't played it since it came out on PS1.

hmmm do I want to keep my PS4 copy or get this on PC instead?
Long range flail. You have to equip it over top of the whirlpool one if you already have that (took me a second to figure out).

I don't know about you but I went PS4 because I like the idea of a physical copy. Especially since I paid so much for it (150) and it will be like 15 cents in about two years so might as well wait if you want it on PC down the road.
Just do like I did and go for both!
I was so enamored by this project that I felt the same way at first but then upped my pledge to get the box and a second digital copy so I'd have it on Steam and PS4. That was probably a bad idea, but here we are today!
