Browser-based demo spotted day before launch of Harvey’s New Eyes

With just one day to go before the launch of Edna & Harvey: Harvey's New Eyes, you can check out Deadalic's offbeat cartoon sequel for yourself in a playable browser-based demo.

Though Edna and the talking stuffed blue rabbit named Harvey still get top billing, Harvey's New Eyes actually stars a young student at a convent school named Lilli, the "best-behaved little girl in the world." No matter what injustices or indignities are imposed upon her, Lilli responds obediently and cheerfully, with any hint of rebelliousness "buried deep beneath a seemingly impenetrable shell of sweetness. But how long will these feelings stay hidden? And where do the friendly little censor-gnomes come from that paint over anything upsetting in Lilli’s vicinity with a pleasant pink color? Are they real or just a product of her subconscious?"

With the full game set to launch on the Adventure Shop and Steam on October 16th, you can try before you buy in the online demo available at Newgrounds, Kongregate, or Daedalic's Facebook page.  The demo takes place right at the beginning of the game, introducing young Lilli as she's forced to do menial chores by the school's child-loathing headmistress.
