Before giving the demo a go, please read and consider the following:

This version is an alpha version from August 2020 that showcases the general feel of the game, not the final product.

Do note this alpha demo does not completely support resolution scaling and the recommended resolution for this alpha demo is 1920x1080. I plan on updating the demo once I get around to implementing accurate game scaling options.
