Presenting: 'Adventures of Demo' game has been released!

[Wohlstand]

Welcome!




Hello everybody!
I present a small game based on the X-Tech engine with the A2XT content pack made by the Talkhaus community (visit their forum here http://talkhaus.raocow.com).

It's a remix of old SMBX episodes such as "The Invasion 1", brought to the A2XT universe!

About characters if you're not familiar with them

Demo, an armless cycloptic demon, alien minion, and command center operator.


Demo's sister Iris, with her pet llamas. She likes to call them Catnips.


Kood, a high-ranking intergalactic freedom fighter.


Demo's Earth friend Samuel, or Raocow, as we like to call him.


Sheath - an energetic teenager with a small brain and even smaller attention span.

I played this fully and I really enjoyed! Great work Sir! I died 0 times, and played every character. I only found some graphics bugs, with characters, but in overall it is so great! Friendly GFX and amazing soundtrack. I recommend it to you all!

I did a Playthrough: Twitch 1 • Twitch 2 / PeerTube 1 • PeerTube 2

Very appealing visuals! Soundtrack was great, too, but the Episode's music could use a bit more variety.

The level design from The Invasion 1 has aged badly in some places. Air Raid in particular was something that did not need to be preserved.

However, if one wants to go through The Invasion 1, this is the definitive way to do it! It will serve as a convenient introduction to the A2XT Universe, too, which I really came to appreciate during my Playthough

I agree with you my friend, and The Invasion is still one of the best SMBX episodes. It gives nostalgia feeling, but yes, it has aged badly in some places. Unfortunetly.
