The Age of Decadence February Update, Demo to Be Released in Two Weeks

This month’s update brings some very good news (and a few screenshots) for those of us who are looking forward for Iron Tower Studio’s old-school indie RPG The Age of Decadence, as the long-awaited game’s demo will be released, if only in public beta form. In the team’s words:

Short version: the wait is almost over; the demo will be released in 2 weeks.

Long version: I’ve just realized that it’s been seven months since we’ve started testing. It’s hard to believe that it’s been that long, that the fall and the winter seasons are already over. You get so focused on daily tasks, which pile up faster than you can handle them, that you don’t really notice how fast time flies. You look back, but you don’t really feel it. Only when you actually count the months, you realize – in shock – how long it’s taken.

So, 7 months, 1,900 posts in the beta forums, and 12 builds later (Oscar has just uploaded a new update), we’re getting ready to release the demo – as public beta – to our audience.

I’d like to use this opportunity to thank our testers (whom I really can’t thank enough). Their input has kept us very busy all these months, kept us working/reworking/tweaking/adding/fixing/breaking shit accidentally and fixing again. Looking back, I realize that back in August we gave the testers a very flawed game and they helped us turn it into a game that we’re proud to give you now. It’s not perfect in any way, but it’s solid.

There were a lot of great ideas and suggestions and I wish we could implement them all, but there is only so much four people can do, even in seven months. Special thanks to people who have encouraged us to take more time to get it right.

I hope you’ll enjoy the game.

On top of that, the update contains some new screenshots that show just how much the team managed to improve on the graphics and interface since the release of the title’s combat demo.
