UNITY'S PROFILE

It's a dark entity that I made up that supposed to transcend worlds, and I put it in both games as kind of a light connection between them (like Uiroq the Mammonite). I've never heard of "By Tooth And Claw Dragons" but it's funny that its the name of a dark god or whatever there too XD

Yay, it's here! :DDDD So exciting to see this getting a gamepage! ^_^

I wanted to give some more thorough thoughts now that I've played all the available gameplay from the demo :D

The graphics are amazing, the heroes all have these super-fluid walk cycles that are almost hypnotizing to watch, and all of their in-battle actions look incredible, both the physical blows and magic casting. The battle animations are punchy and the sound design in battle ensures that you feel the hits in a satisfying way.

Enemy sprites are big, bold and do that wonderful Chrono Trigger thing where they'll either be hanging out in the environment or jump out of holes or water or whatever when it's time to rumble. It's great and makes me smile! Also the way item-holding interactables on the field spring to life and give you their goodies also looks and feels awesome!!!

The music is amazing, and sends you down a deep dark hole all the way to the center of Gloom. It helps sell the dire eat-or-be-eaten feel of Pox's chapter as well as the general otherworldlyness of Gloom as a whole. As someone who regularly returns to the Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass soundtrack, I can already tell that I'll surely be doing the same for this game's OST :DDDD

Pox's segment in the demo is certainly a feast, no pun intended. It feels desperate and like every moment's going to be your last, and really conveys the bug-eat-bug world we're in and put me in the mindset of Pox and his plight to get any damn health so I could survive and get the hell out of there.

Atmosphere of the locations really shines here from the everyday locations of the hive to deep clawing darkness of the pit you get tossed in, shrouded by darkness where the fallen are desperate for their next meal or otherwise hiding for survival.

Capella's chapter had more of the feeling of what the RPG's standard mode of play will (I assume) feel like. That's not at all a bad thing, as having a more normal less frenzied pace to explore and just do the RPG dance is very appreciated in and of itself; every moment can't be super do-or-die or there's no ebb and flow.

All in all, her chapter felt like playing a really tight Chrono-Trigger area with a tense but satisfying boss battle at the end. It left me both feeling satisfied but really wanting to see more at the same time, which is a positive feeling IMO.

All in all, this demo just reinforces the hype I had for the game, it is excellent. Do I have any suggestions or criticisms? Some very small ones, I'll leave them under a tag since I've already rambled a ton:



Okay, I'm done giving my thoughts! :DDD As I said elsewhere, this has so much potential that I hope that you not only get fully funded over on Kickstarter but get as many of those stretch goals as humanly possible! :DDDDD Really pumped for this and I can already tell this is going to be a masterpiece. I cannot wait to see everything that Gloom has to offer and to hear the Hymn of the Earless God!!!

I'm so hype for this :DDDDDDDDDDDDD

Really enjoyed this, what a fantastic cast and a fun rollercoaster of a story! :DDD Thanks so much, Craze! ^_^
