It's here, y'all! Feel free to download and try out the next leg of development for Tales of the Trail in this 2nd demo! There are still some issues involving UI formatting and some enemy AI, but said errors will be polished as we move along

A little teaser for our next leg. In Sheriff's offices, you can access the bulletin board, which will later be used to display missions and bounties for your party. The most prominent content we'll be implementing next is 3 new playable classes and a boss fight!

@2dcon.gg was a rousing success this year! We, in particular, got to learn that the game is super easy to get the hang of! We still have a few hiccups to fix before our next demo is released online, but be sure to be on the lookout soon! #gamedev #indiedev

In addition to battling bandits, wildlife, and overcoming the trials of nature itself, your party will also encounter lots of other travelers on the trail when going between towns. Should you choose to help, harm, humor or hinder them is all up to you

Your party's first mission will be to travel to the town of Salt Lake, Utah. This town on the shore of the Great Salt Lake is a haven for the Mormon people. Be sure to also visit the Sheriff's office to get a look at missions to come post-demo 2

Meet the Gunslinger! This wiry young cowpoke is a deadly adversary with a gun in his hand! When given the time to prepare, virtually nothing can stand in his way between him and another notch on his pistol. #gamedev #indiedev
