SURPRISE! The Beggar Demo releases tomorrow + HUGE NEWS!

Hello Horror Tales players! Well, today I have a BIG surprise to you all: The Free Demo of Horror Tales The Beggar will release tomorrow 16:00 CET. The demo features parts of the first 3 areas of the game, when some content cut down to make the demo more compact while also leaving some of the lore mistery to be resolved in the final game! Releasing this demo SO close to the release date (June 17) is a big gamble for me, but the demo had to be released because various reasons. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1343340/HORROR_TALES_The_Beggar/

Reason 1: a VERY weird and unique game.

Horror Tales The Beggar is not Horror Tales The Wine 2.0. It expands in not just the lore, but the gameplay itself too. Let's just say that The Beggar is highly experimental with some game mechanics you've never seen in a Horror Game. For those of you doubting to buy the game or not on release, you can try the Demo and see for yourself if this is your cup of tea!

Reason 3: Steamdeck ready!

You can try the Demo on your Steamdeck! The game features a "Steamdeck" mode in the video settings menu, and I'd love for you to try it if you are a steamdeck owner. Lots of hours have been focused into making an amazing steamdeck experience. Now it is time for you to judge if it was worth it!

Reason 4: I want to listen to you!

After you have played the demo, please come to the Steam Discussions of the game and post your feedback! Although the game will be released shortly in June 17, I am a quick worker and if there is some fixing to be done I can DO IT!

5: Community Localizations:

If you love what you see in the demo and would like to help me with localizacion of the Demo and The Full game, please let me know here! We are currently looking for localizations to French, Arabic, Korean, German, Italian and Portuguese! Having also Danish, Dutch, Finnish, Greek and Swidish localizations would be absolutely fantastic too!!! Of course, your name will also be featured in the credits of the game :) The localization is just 2145 words long, so it should not take you longer than 1 hour. Access to Community Localizations Why community localizations for those languages? In my previous experience with other released games, including Horror Tales The Wine, economically it is just not worth it to pay for a profesional localization in those languages. That is the simple and crude truth.

A big gamble

To finish this long post. as you may know, the videogame industry is in crisis mode from quite some time. Layoffs everywhere, indie game that sell 0 copies, etc. I have not been inmune to this crisis and the sales of my games have significantly decreased since two years ago. That why I am betting my gamedev future in one big gamble: Go big or go home. That's why I am releasing a Demo so close to release AND also will feature a 40% discount for release. The game will never be as deeply discounted for years. See you all tomorrow in your youtube and twitch channels playing the demo or in the discussions reading your feedback! Don't forget to Wishlist the game. Big hug, Carlos https://store.steampowered.com/app/1343340/HORROR_TALES_The_Beggar/

Release

Indie Strategy Singleplayer

Change the entire environment!

Wrapped in a mind-bending tale, the gameplay of “MIND” focuses on changing the very weather in order to solve puzzles: the player will cycle between day and night, modify the levels of fog and rain and even travel in time between seasons, changing the environment to advance the gameplay-driven story —indeed, the mechanics are directly related to who the protagonist is, what has happened to him and everything he is doing: a man trapped in his own mind, he must use all the tools at his disposition to escape to reality. Accompanied by the snarky yet heartfelt narration of this comatose patient, the player will guide him through fantastical forests, dark caverns and deceptive worlds of water and ice that directly relate to his emotional state at each point in his journey.
