Hooray again! The third and most likely final demo is now available! It's still possible for more demos to be made in the future, but now development is going to go solely into making the final project. There is finally a "close the program" button located in the main menu. We're currently working on controller support. While this demo does identify controllers. The actually controlling is scuffed, and won't work. For now please use a keyboard and mouse. This demo does not replace the previous' data.

Hooray! The Second Demo is now available! I've left the original demo here as well though, in case you want to mess around with it's glitchy goodness. Do be careful though, the save data, is linked between them and the shortcuts will replace each other. 

We now have a Merch Store! If you like what you see or simply want to help support our project, then click here: https://store.streamelements.com/stonestudiosofficial to purchase the best quality Stone Studios Merch!

Please keep in mind this is an early demo release. There will be bugs, if there is, be sure to leave them in a comment below, that way I can fix it and make the game even better.

THE GAME ISN'T RECOGNISED BY WINDOWS DEFENDER,  SO IF IT REFUSES TO RUN, CLICK MORE INFO, RUN ANYWAY. I haven't checked with other operating systems, so if you have an operating system that isn't windows, I highly advise you leave a comment telling me what happens. 

Thanks for Playing!
