The best demo of 2025, period!

I was very impressed with this game. The originality, the tone, the atmosphere, everything was top notch! I loved the unique monsters, environment design, sound effects, different tasks and animations - solid, professional job, I have to say this looked more like a triple A game than an actual triple A game. 

Wishlisted game on stream and I can't wait to play a full version. Best of luck with the development. Cheers!
