Deadstone Demo Updated & 15% Off Sale

Nov 6 2014 News

Hi all,

I've been meaning to update Deadstone's demo for some time, as the game has received a considerable amount of attention since the initial release in July. But as the only full time developer working on Deadstone, time is ever the enemy.

These changes were, for the most part, motivated by feedback taken from reviews and from the community. Each piece of feedback was written down as it came in, allowing for the key issues to be identified and tackled. Deadstone's pacing is more frantic, thanks to twice as many enemies and faster movement for all units, the weapons more fun, with faster firing and large capacity, and 15 new perks have been added, to a total of 59. A new game mode, survival has been added, which game journalist Rob Cram investigates here, although this mode isn't present in the demo.

The new demo, which gives a better sense of the current state of the game, is available here, if you'd like to give it a whirl. Should you find it to your liking, you might be interested to know that Deadstone is currently 15% off, when purchased direct, through Desura, or Indie Game Stand. You can find out more about the sale, here.

See you planet-side!
