Players would get a feel of the game and I get critical feedback. What is the release date of the demo?October 16th 2026.What about an early access release?I thought long and hard about an early access release for this game and I don't think it would be right. I want players to experience the full story at once and the way the game and story is structured won't fit an early access release. However, I'm not against the idea - we shall see how things hold up in the future.Come on, why isn't the game out yet?Being a computer engineering student means not having that much free time. Not having much free time means that development will be a bit slow, but I'm trying my best with what resources I have!Can I contribute to the development of Bloody Duke?So far I'm handling development quite well actually. However, I'd love to receive some help with soundtracks and anything related to audio. Hey, if you're willing to donate your voice to the devil and be included as a random NPC's voice I'm not complaining 😉 . For any serious requests to aid the development of Bloody Duke contact me at: bloodydukegame@gmail.comCan I donate to aid Bloody Duke's development?Yes, I will see to making people able to fund the game.Does the game have a Steam page yet?YesWhat direction are you going with the game?Visually, I'm trying to make a dark fantasy game combining pixel-art with retro graphics. Story wise, it will be rich and deep combining elements of revenge and melancholy, testing the human will to the extreme. I can't say more because I want to avoid giving spoilers. Will there be cats in the game?Yes.Will the game have microtransactions?No! The video game industry should avoid them at all costs!Will the game have any DLCs?I have written the story in such a way that the ending is interpretive and that, if I wanted to, I could make a DLC to give the game a true finale whilst developing a secondary character. Yes, most likely there will be a single DLC, but in the far future.Where are you from?🇷🇴 Romania! That's why Bloody Duke will incorporate some of Romanian mythology. I also thought it would be unique and cool to represent it because there's a lack of it in media and man, do we have some dark and nasty stuff... perfect for Bloody Duke!What are your biggest inspirations?There are many but the main ones are: Dark Souls, Castlevania, Blasphemous, Berserk, Lord of the Rings.
