Yes, a small backers privilege Smile
I mentioned it on the Kickstarter page from the start!

It will also help to anticipate some issues before the release day. For example someone has just reported a weird issue on Linux with the mouse moving because it detects a gamepad, but there’s no gamepad… I’ve found a quick fix but I need to investigate it further!

Forgot about it, but still, most promises made during a kickstarter period go out the window, so congratulations on sticking with it and actually releasing the game in the estimated date!

I know! Smile

When I wrote the Kickstarter page, I set a date far enough in the future so it would give me more than enough time to finish the development. And I’m glad I didn’t stray away from my estimated planning Smile

It was a LOT of hard work though! Making a 10-hours long adventure game definitely isn’t an easy task for a single dev, and that’s an understatement… I’m so glad to be “finished” so I can finally do some other things in my life. Like… playing other games lol

At some point I’ll write a Post Mortem, and you can be sure it will be pretty long and full of surprises… Wink

Man, has this already been a week since the release of Demetrios? Time sure flies!

A lot of sites have reviewed the game and gave it good reviews! For example Game Boomers really liked it :

If you’re interested to get the game before it goes full price, it’s still 10% off on my site today, where you can get both the DRM Free version and a Steam key for the same price :

Look at that little game which now has a “Very Positive” rating on Steam :p


I’ve ordered the DVD units for the Kickstarter backers and everyone else who pre-ordered it, so I should send them soon. I’ve ordered 100 units so there are still a few units available on the site, if you’re interested in this limited physical release!

Got’em! Grin

And that’s when I realize it will take quite some time to prepare all these packages! :p

Demetrios has been updated with a MAJOR change : a “toilet humor” option! Grin

Does this make it the first adventure game in history with that kind of choice?!
Yes, now you can choose to play Demetrios without any “gross” jokes! Smile I know a few people didn’t like this aspect of the game, so hopefully you can enjoy this adventure better!

This also includes a new music track in Nogo (I know the soundtrack could be a little repetitive with only 2 tracks there), a full Russian translation, and a few minor fixes.

To celebrate this, Demetrios is 25% off this week only!

It’s official : Demetrios is coming to PlayStation Vita ! Grin

I’ve worked very hard on this version in order to adapt the game to stick/buttons and touch controls.

The trailer posted on the official PlayStation Youtube channel :

If you have the console, look forward to it on the PSN on November 15th, in America and Europe !

I guess you’ve seen it already on the homepage, but Adventure Gamers liked Demetrios and gave it 3.5/5 :

http://www.adventuregamers.com/articles/view/31498

Good thing I did the “toilet humor” update :p

People have very different sensibilities, because even without the update, many still liked the game pretty much.

As for the PS Vita version which was supposed to come out next week, I had to push it back due to some undetected bugs with saves. Frown Expect a release on December 6th.

It has happened!
My quirky adventure game “Demetrios” is now available on PlayStation Vita!

https://store.playstation.com/#!/en-gb/games/demetrios-the-big-cynical-adventure/cid=EP1762-PCSB01036_00-DEMETRIOS0000000

Only 9.99 €, with 20% discount for PS+ members.

Making this game for PS Vita was a ton of hard work (especially for a one-man “team” like myself!), but it was worth it Smile
