Hello there, just letting folk know that there is a new update to the new demo.
Some small bug fixes but also some new modifiers for the new level select/custom game menu.
Rainbow blood (each blood drop is assigned a random colour)
Hardcore mode (harder game mode with no checkpoints)
Big head mode (all enemies have huge heads)
These modifiers become unlocked on finishing the third level so if you've finished it already just give it another playthrough and you'll unlock them.
COVEN - Summer 2023 Demo Update
I recently released a demo update for a bundle with 2 other games on itch: https://itch.io/b/1977/the-dark-and-gory-shooter-bundle The demo bundle features demos for COVEN, KVLT and DARKENSTEIN 3D.

UPDATE
Regrettably, due to circumstances beyond our control, the development of Coven has been canceled and we have requested that this page be removed from Steam. If you happened to have wish-listed the game, thank you for your interest.

I made a few changes to the demo mostly minor fixes and some cosmetic enhancements.
Changed the name of the game back to Coven, which was the original title.
Updated the game's artwork to reflect the name change.
Updated the speech font to make it easier to read during some segments.
Made a number of minor edits, cosmetic re-touches, and fixed a few glitches I was made aware of.
If you come across any issues or have anything you'd like to comment on please open a new topic on the Steam Community Hub discussions, and we'll get to it as fast as we can!
Thank you for all your help and support.

Some minor changes to the demo
Just a small patch for the demo to fix some bugs and to make some minor changes to the level.
- Fixed player getting stuck in holding state if the object they're holding breaks - Made doors easier to use - Added a new tutorial - A bunch of minor e1m1 changes
Demo Achievement Hotfix!
Achievements weren't triggering after the player had died then reloaded the level. This is now fixed!
Apologies to those who missed out on achievements because of this. I guess it's an excuse to play again.
The Halloween Demo is out now!
The Halloween Demo is here! Rise from the grave and exact revenge on those who wronged you! Eat their flesh and bathe in their blood.
In the demo: - Utilize 6 different weapons to devastate your enemies - Movement is key - dash, jump and slide in order to survive - Eat the flesh of your enemies to regain health so you may continue on your path of rigorous vengeance - Uncover the dark history of the world by hunting for secrets
