1.2.0 - 64 bit for Mac and Linux New game "Brok" in developmentWith the upcoming release of OS X 10.15 Catalina and Ubuntu 19.04 which require 64 bit builds, I have updated Demetrios so it keeps running on these systems.
This required me to switch the project to GameMaker Studio 2.0.
The Windows version is not concerned and has not been changed to avoid any compatibility issues.
Also, I'm having good progress with my new game in development codenamed "Project Brok"!
This is a huge, very ambitious adventure game mixing genres in never-before-seen ways. The game script and programming are already "complete" (meaning the game can be played from start to end, but with rough art / placeholders) A few playtesters have already finished it and loved it! It took them between 15 and 20 hours to complete it on first playthrough. (see what I mean by "huge"?)
Although a very different tone, fans of Demetrios should definitely look forward to it!
I've been working hard on Brok full time for the past 3 years (simultaneously with console versions of Demetrios). I'm hoping to announce the game as soon as I can focus on the art and show near-final screenshots, most likely early next year.
Feel free to join my new Discord server for regular news and to follow this project more closely!
