After the recent update to Demonheart: Hunters, I got back to working on the Cursed Trial. I'm pleased to share that the text for Chapter 4 is now complete. However, there's still some work to do in terms of testing and polishing to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience. A February release is still the goal. ːRedTridentːːWitchAriː https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/33404344/23970a665c86dce8590bffeeb9854c43d5ef30de.jpg Stay tuned for further updates, and thank you for your ongoing support and interest. ːheart_eyes_yetiː Best regards, LambDemonheart: Hunters - Anniversary content update!Jan 24, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsIt's been almost 4 years since Demonheart: Hunters came out! I wanted to thank you all for your interest in my games and your support, so I was secretly preparing this content update. It came out a few days ago on Windows, and now it's available on Mac OS and Linux as well. You can read the full list of changes in the announcement here. In the meantime, I'll continue working on the fourth chapter of Demonheart: The Cursed Trial ːheart_eyes_yetiː https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images/33404344/5e222dfaf543c936985b553bffa225f8e7bc9733.pngDemonheart Visual Novel Sale!Dec 11, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsHi all! I don't always post sales announcements, but I figure there are always players who missed a sale, or even (gasp!) players who don't know about the Ice Demon or my beloved pet project Demonheart: The Cursed Trial, so here's a reminder. ːhappy_yetiː Three Rolling Crown visual novels are on sale: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27939525/25a8f21c7586f5b13d3a22847c2e3050cf63039b.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27939525/31d500c0308ea892bd63714d2799edb68ec023a4.jpg • Do try Jester / King if you don't mind my "solo dev" art, a male protagonist and the fact it doesn't have "Demonheart" in the title, the story took me 3 rewrites and a lot of effort. ːcrying_yetiː {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27939525/29a292983e22bc470ecb30e49d9cd2a228a3a942.png Also, Demonheart: The Cursed Trial has launched in early access. Three out of seven chapters are released, and the fourth chapter is planned to come out in early 2024. Check it out and wishlist if you want more dark fantasy drama! (it's better than the Ice Demon ːlaughing_yetiː) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27939525/f90bc12ff6c70959dc032b66b3ae6249209faecc.pngDLC coming soon - Kaisar's MuzzleDec 9, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsBased on player suggestions, we created a very essential DLC for Demonheart: The Cursed Trial... ːlaughing_yetiː Kaisar's Muzzle! (Don't ask.) You can find it here. It will come out soon. ːedgardoː https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images/33404344/699bc3913374a15c8961372fdbf3efda33fba8d5.jpgProgress Update - End of November 2023Nov 30, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsHello! I'm here with a progress update on Demonheart: The Cursed Trial, which came out in early access. I'm happy with the reactions the game has received so far, as well as the love certain characters are getting. ːhappy_yetiː There is now fanart of the Cursed Trial characters. ːsurprised_yetiː Some of it is in the Artwork section in the Steam community, and more art has been posted on the Rolling Crown Discord or Tumblr, Twitter etc, if you search for it. https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images/33404344/f1cd77c8c327470d262484aa7a923ef4ce2cdd87.png I have been working on the script for the next chapter. As of today, around 12.400 words are in-game for Chapter 4, with more in text documents, waiting to be edited and used. After I am done with the first version of the text, the game will still need testing, scene edits for the scenes that turn out to need it, and polish such as adding sound effects. There will be two new CGs, which are already finished. The estimate for the chapter's release is early February. I have posted the planned timeline for releasing all the chapters on the store page and in the Steam discussions here - it could change over time, but that is the general plan. With the holiday season ahead, I expected late December and early January to be a slower time for work, so that's why Chapter 4 is planned to come out in February, even though it feels like it could be finished sooner. ːdazed_yetiːDemonheart: The Cursed Trial Released!Nov 14, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsThe Cursed Trial has released in Steam early access!

So far, we've had some amazing feedback and player theories. Also, it feels really great to discuss the VN with players while I'm still writing it as opposed to working on the story alone in the dark for two years. ːedgardoː The game currently contains three polished chapters out of the seven planned chapters. Voice acting is planned for the future, when all the text is finished. The word counts are 19.000 to 26.000 words per chapter - a little over 67.000 words so far. When it's fully finished, this will be Rolling Crown's longest VN yet. ːsurprised_yetiː The launch is scheduled for November 13th! Wishlist the game if you haven't already done so ːhappy_yetiː and thank you for following! https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/33404344/151aa6ee519f0c268d56c35ad5e3982f45fbef4a.png Cursed Trial - Demo UpdateOct 20, 2023 - Community Announcementshttps://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/33404344/b7238acd9f3138009f0174eb5580a6a91ba2728b.jpg While working on the third out of the seven chapters of Demonheart: The Cursed Trial, I went back to the first chapter (demo) and made some edits. There are a lot of small changes which you may or may not notice if you replay. Changes: Rephrased many lines of narration and dialog. Changed some expressions and sprite positions. Changed Ran's expression on several occasions into less childish and more manly ones. ':) Added a few new choices and NPC lines - nothing crucial, but these changes will mess with old saves. Old alignment and relationship points will be preserved, but you may end up on the wrong line when you reload. Started silently tracking Janiya's approval. Old saves didn't track this, so it will be like your relationship with her was neutral. Which is not the worst it could be. ':) Changed some sound effects. The demo is available here! Don't forget to wishlist the Cursed Trial! Meanwhile, the third chapter is nearly finished, and when it's polished, there's a possibility of Steam early access!

All the content is already scripted and coded, and I'm also in the process of editing the third chapter's text before I put it in the game. In the second one, you will finally be able to solve that anagram, similar to how it worked in the first Demonheart. ːhappyprismː In the meantime, the character artist, 6nii9, finished this amazing illustration of the main character with Kaisar (a very decent young gentleman...) ːRedTridentː https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images/33404344/48487ce17eb48e8f474fea62c9fede6c5ffaa068.png I don't have an estimated date for an early access Steam release yet.

Hope you have a great day! LambUpdate + Cursed Trial DemoJun 14, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsThe updates brought by version 2.00+ are now included in the latest Mac OS build. Also, the Mac build is now signed and notarized by Apple. We also fixed a few issues on all operating systems: Achievement Touchy Fingers should work again (when you click on the demonspawn's amulet in the main menu you should hear his voice.) The mouse cursor should no longer change to the default arrow at the edges of the screen. The updates introduced in v2.00, now included in the Mac OS build, were: The conversation UI can now be hidden by middle-clicking with the mouse, and restored on any click. Right-clicking closes menus, as is common in some visual novels. Added an in-game screen with achievements progress. Exploration mode now shows where the explorable objects are. (Also, its whole implementation had to change due to the engine change.) Clarified the anagram minigame message in English - that you need to drag the letters. Steam Overlay and screenshots should work without having to enable anything. Slightly restyled some parts of the UI. Increased font size. If the new version doesn't work for you for any reason, you can use Steam's Betas functionality to revert to version 1.65 (the branch name is v165.) In other news, the demo for Demonheart: The Cursed Trial is coming to Steam soon! It's scheduled to come out on June 20th. Check out the game and add it to your wishlist if you haven't done so already: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27939525/343041a500bcd58e525763a41c86f7010cce1ea4.pngDevlog - Demonheart: The Cursed TrialMay 6, 2023 - Community Announcementshttps://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/33404344/08a392d3b0288d9053cf59856bc27347b446b32e.png Hey all! This is about the upcoming game Demonheart: The Cursed Trial. I usually post progress updates on Twitter and Discord, so follow me and join the Discord if you haven't yet. Some players suggested that I post more news on Steam, so I'll try to do that. I'm working on the plot and script, and commissioning two artists, for the characters and backgrounds. The sprites are finished for all eight non-player characters, and we have concept art for the main character. She will probably not appear on screen most of the time, as there are so many others to fit there. :) Next to do, other than the main character's full version, are the CGs or special illustrations, mostly the romanceable characters and the demonspawn. Here are some of the newer screenshots, one of them featuring a beautiful dungeon background that the artist just delivered. (At least I think dungeons are beautiful - do you? :')) https://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/33404344/f8d2119289d34c20f3c36f9b64666b9e6403f026.jpg https://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/33404344/e63b5d6e5d8bb92282c1a117c5571b25be8fc3e5.jpg Don't forget to add the upcoming game to your wishlist! ːcharmedː Also, subscribe to the mailing list if you want to be notified when I publish a demo, or if you don't want to miss any future project announcements.Update v2.01 + Cursed TrialApr 22, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsThis update fixes some visual glitches introduced in v2.00.
