Before there was a proof of concept for Radiant Darkness, there was a PreAlpha.
This version of the game was created by a team of students as a senior project. We like to call it the PreAlpha. It was the first version of the game. It takes about 5 hours to complete and, unfortunately, does not have a save system of any kind. With that said, this version of the game may be a complete experience but is far from polished. It has many of the features planned in the final version that we are creating, but not all of them, and what is there is far from perfect.
We hope that you enjoy this version as a little window into the development of Radiant Darkness, and not as a representation of our skill or what the game will become. We have a lot planned for the actual release of the game so we hope you don't hold this little demo against us; it was, in fact, developed by 15 college students in less than ten weeks.
With that in mind, you can expect bugs, graphical errors, sloppy controls, and strange gameplay, but we hope you enjoy it all the same. We look forward to any feedback you may have. Feel free to comment, DM, or even email us to let us know what you think.
To install, simply download, unzip, open the file, and run the .exe. We have tested this many times, so it should work, but since it is our first time uploading a playable .exe to a website, there may be problems, let us know if you encounter any so we can fix it right away.
Enjoy!
