Sparkles & Gems

New Game from Sparkles & Gems dev - Stardust Demon!!!
Here's our new game!! It's a retro metroidvania. Check it out and wishlist here:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2815500/Stardust_Demon/

It features a combination of 2D pixel art and 3D old-skool art for cutscenes, and a lot of silliness like Sparkles & Gems and cool music! If you like our work, wishlisting really helps us out and enables us to do more. Thank you!!

Version 1.02... + Soundtrack Released!
The soundtrack is now out!! Exciting!!
We are also working with Fourth Strike Records to release a limited run of physical cassette tapes of the soundtrack, which we are super excited about!! You can pre-order a copy now at the soundtrack bandcamp page - https://resni.bandcamp.com/album/sparkles-gems-soundtrack

Also there's a few fixes to the game itself:

Changelog:

- "Softie Meow" changed to "Softie" on win screen & text colour fixed

- Toy bus is visible inside room after you've collected it

A few seconds of guitar solo added to Softie's theme
