The new demo is available to download and it has lots of changes. You should really try it!
First of all, the primary mode that we've been working on all this time is now in the demo and it's called Nexus. It contains the first three levels and should give a pretty good idea of what the core experience is going to be like.
Each mode has several difficulty levels from the get go. If you think the game is too easy, just crank the difficulty up before you start the run. Also, don't forget to check the settings, we've added a bunch of new stuff you can tweak.
The Nexus mode has elite type of enemies, as for now, they are just slightly tougher than their normal versions, but they'll get additional set of traits and attacks on release.
Both modes have received a dozen of new trophies and three new power ups. Unlike in the Summoning mode, in Nexus each power up must be activated manually by pressing the "F" key. If you already carry a power up, but found another one you can swap them by pressing "E".
Pleas bare in mind that some pieces of the game are still a WIP. You may found bugs, placeholders, or missing assets (like sounds).
We look forward to your feedback, and if you like the demo please consider wishlisting Mist Hunter.
Have a great Friday,
Flox team

Demo update #2 Build 1295
First of all, we want to thank everyone for playing the demo and all the feedback you sent us. Also thanks for joining our discord.
Because the game and the demo is one inseparable entity and we are actively adding new stuff the demo can and will be affected. Some things might be out of place or don't work properly. We could've just stopped updating the demo, but we want you to see as it's getting better.
In this update we've fixed the Xbox controllers, so you should be able to play with a PS4 or Xbox controller without any issues.
The most noticeable change is the soundtrack. We've been playing around with a fancy thing called - dynamic soundtrack. To put it simply the music changes based on the number of enemies to highlight the intensity of the fight.
The new soundtrack is from another mode and a very different visual style, so it's slightly off stylistically. Larog levels will get their own soundtrack to better fit the mood.
We also added a visual indicator for the primary fire mode to show when a weapon is ready to fire. You can adjust the frequency in the settings or turn it off completely if you don't like it.
I'm planning to write a proper progress update next week, but meanwhile here is some cool gifs of the weapons that are already in the game.
