After 3 years of development, Balkadia is finally ready for release. It will be releasing two weeks from now, on April 28th (Thursday). If you haven't played the demo, now would be the perfect time to try out the first 3 stages of Balkadia.
Gameplay: A classicvania, featuring 8-directional whipping and giant bosses with multiple forms. The whip is versatile enough to serve as a shield, cut through enemies and use them as projectiles. Fluid controls will help you overcome any platforming challenge. Not a metroidvania. Playtime: The full game consists of 15 levels, each different from the next. While you can speedrun Balkadia in about 90 minutes, this won't be possible on your first playthrough. There are also 15 achievements included and optional upgrades which make replaying older stages fun.
Some technical details:

• ultrawide friendly: Balkadia supports 21:9 and 32:9 monitors
• retro friendly: Balkadia supports 4:3 and 5:4 monitors
• 4K ready: all graphics were designed with 4K in mind, then scaled down for lower resolutions
• controller support: Balkadia works with any controller detected by your OS, but requires a keyboard for the initial configuration
