Demon Sword
A downloadable game for Windows
Demon Sword aims to revive classic hack 'n slash gaming. Gameplay is inspired by Devil May Cry, while the visuals use a similar technique to Octopath Traveler, fusing 2D pixel art with a 3D environment.
Disclaimer
I decided to upload the demo of Demon Sword — I developed this piece of software while I was studying Game Design and Production. This demo includes the prologue chapter and a combat showcase with upgrade mechanics. I thought, why not share and let people play it? Even though the development is halted at the moment, if the project gets enough reach and recognition, I might continue it! I set up a Patreon page, but please be aware that I can only dedicate time to development if significant funds are raised.

Story-driven
Set in modern times, the story centers on Selene, a legendary warrior who, in secrecy, fights against demons that cross the threshold between our world and theirs. She meets a woman named Annabelle who asks her to investigate unusual cult activity in a nearby town.
Hack 'n slash your way
Demon Sword is the HD-2D reimagining of Devil May Cry, faithfully capturing the essence of the iconic series' initial installments. With intense combat sequences and thrilling environments, it faithfully recreates everything fans cherished.
Don't die!
Defeat adversaries, claim their souls, and augment your power. Upgrade your abilities to unleash devastating attacks and conquer increasingly formidable challenges in Demon Sword's relentless journey.

Demon Sword is best played with a controller.
