Would you like to play a demo of my new game? Sure you would!
https://store.steampowered.com/app/4377480/Burn9/
It's called "Burn-9," a turn-based tactical visual novel. You're the operator directing a super soldier fighting for her life in a secret Antarctic military base.
The demo is short but our game director and author, my nephew, has a very long story to tell once we're all done.
Let me know what you think! And if you find a bug, please let me know because I'm the QA lead. 😊

@lisamelton How is it in SteamOS? I do most of my gaming lately on a Legion Go S.

@sgtstretch It works on Steam OS using Proton, but gamepad support is currently minimal in the demo. So, on my Steam Deck you have to "steer" the mouse with the right joystick.
But we'll have full gamepad support for the final version.

@lisamelton With a tactical narrative game in the same fest, very much! But looks like I have to wait for release to play on my MacBook…
(Thousand Hells is also built with Godot.)

@lisamelton got me all excited just to get slapped with Windows only. Will it eventually be available for Linux?

@axolotl Yes, the plan is to have it native on Linux and Mac, too.
Currently it works perfectly well if you install it on Linux and enable Steam's built-in Proton emulation layer for Windows.

@lisamelton im sure i can look it up, but ill let you know if i hit any snags. Iv used linux most of my life but at a low level. I assumed you needed a windows emulator like wine or something like that.

@axolotl Recent versions of Steam for Linux have Windows emulation built into them. You do have to enable it from Steam settings. And often some tweaks are required for certain games to work. See:
https://www.protondb.com/
...for what those tweaks might be if you run into problems.
But many other Steam games also have native Linux versions available.

@lisamelton Run under Linux and I didn't found issues.
Good gameplay, did not found counter-intuitive points about the GUI or commands.
Are the in-game docs supposed to get updated during the play in the final release? In the demo as we find out what happen to the team, their status in the document tag stays the same.

Yes, the final release will have more in-game documentation.

@lisamelton Hello Lisa, there is no Age identifier for Germany. There could be problems on Steam because without age verification the game is not available in Germany. I will check out the demo because it looks interesting. It would just be annoying if it is not available in Germany.
Best Regards
Wrannek

Pale-face directing black-ops!
Minimum:
OS: Windows 10 (64-bit)
Processor: Dual-core 2.0 GHz
Memory: 4 GB RAM
I have only just enough RAM. Not sure about some of the othe requirements.
Seems promising.

@lisamelton Duly wishlisted! It shows as 32-bit only on Mac so you might need to tick some checkbox to say that it works on modern day Macs.

We don't actually have a Mac version yet which is why Steam is listing it wrong. When we do, it will definitely be 64-bit.

I only started on the project in December, but it's been in development for over a year.
I'm basically acting as an advisor, QA lead and spare coder.

@lisamelton Thanks for the reply!
For a project that's been in dev just over a year, it looks awesome.
I'll try the demo as soon as I finish updating my game. Wishing you both the best of luck!
