    We made a lot of "quality of life" additions & changes to improve your experience with Aestik.

    TLDR

    Here are all the new changes quickly summarized in a short video:

    [ 2023-09-01 11:10:59 CET ] [Original Post]
    New Quest Line incl. New Decision + More Accessibility Updates

    Game Description Image


    Hi folks (:

    Were super pleased to announce that weve just updated the demo!

    We made some changes in terms of accessibility (yes, Aestik becomes more accessible by the day :D) as well as adding a bit more content for you guys to test out.


    [olist]

  • NEW QUEST LINE + NEW DECISION
    • Introducing Oddfrey on his strange quest to find nihilism in his life
      It's the Oddguy's mission to preach nihilism, but poor Oddfrey stands out among the crowd - he's simply too happy in life. Help him get back on track, find nihilism, and become the true nihilistic self that he yearns to be.
    Game Description Image

  • SETTINGS MENU
    • Aestik now has its very own settings menu!
    • With the new update, you will be able to customize your player experience even more as you can now individually adjust the volume of Aestiks background music as well as SFX.
    • After doing some playtesting recently, we became aware of the fact that screenshake can be off-putting or straight-up irritating to some players which is why we implemented the option to turn it off/on if youd like.
    • Also, are you guilty of running Aestik on a computer that is closer to a toaster than the high-end gaming PC of your dreams? We got you covered! Weve implemented the option to change the game's resolution to well anything between Aestik-if-it-was-pixel-art and crisp-as-morning-dew -> you choose!
    • And lastly, is your eyesight getting worse? Me too, dude. But all jokes aside, too small of a screen or losing your glasses is no longer an issue because the size of the dialogue boxes is finally adjustable - so, happy reading, everyone!
    [/olist]

    Anyway, its getting late - DONT FORGET TO WISHLIST AESTIK AND TELL ALL YOUR FRIENDS, FAMILY, PETS AND PLANTS ABOUT IT TOO!

    Much love,
    Julia & Nic
