Second Impact [DEMO]

1994. Rolf is a 16-year-old boy who lives in an old immigrant town called Bassomonte. Nothing really happens in that place, hidden between mountains, until one night changes the entire course of his life. Will Rolf and his friends have what it takes to save the world during this very long night?

- Two routes: The Boys and The Girls.

- Three endings: A unique ending for each route, and one true ending unlocked after seeing the first two.

- Estimated playtime: 30 to 60 minutes.

- Retro style: Pixel Art, SFX and Music made to resemble the 16-bit era.

- Original music.

- 6 illustrated cutscenes to collect, visible at any time from the Gallery menu.

- Available in both English and Spanish. Switchable from the Options menu.

- Quality of life options such as Save/Load and Volume regulation for SFX, Music and Speech.

- Hybrid controls: While you will be able to point and click, the movement will be handled with the keyboard, allowing for more action-like scenes to unfold!

- WASD/Arrows for movement.

- Right Click for using/interacting/advance text.

- Left Click for examine/skip text faster.

- Esc for Pause/opening menu.

You can pause at any time with Esc, even while dialogue is playing. You can also Load at any time, even while during a cutscene.

- Tags like Action and Romance will be fully fledged in the full game. In this Demo, they'll be milder.

- Themes of corruption, rebellion, vandalism and allusions to communism.

- Mild use of profane language.

- A flashing light at the very begining.
