There is a Demo for Against the Storm

[Isaiah53six]

If you have been wondering if this game is for you, why not try the demo? Not many games see Demos these days so I highly recommend trying out the game that way. Kudos to the Dev's for creating it!

The demo is available and we don't plan to remove it ^^ There's a blue "Download Demo" button on the right panel above the languages.

Ah ok.

Until now, i didn't know that the Demo button could be there.
Only saw it as a big green button where you could normaly buy the game also.

Thanks!

In my usual genres I see lots of demos, though most of them are very short and only available for limited periods. The demo for this game is incredible, I played it for more than 15 hours before caving in and buying the full version XD

I don't see the download demo button on the Steam Deck when I'm on the game store page.

I also don't see the demo button on the steam deck

The demo not showing up with Steam Deck is an issue with deck, that shows up approximately every time there are both a game and a demo available.
Demo shows up without issues on computer interface.
So, perhaps if enough steam deck users went and complained about this issue in Steam Deck reporting forums, Steam would fix it, and games and devs would not be blamed for issue they can not do anything about? ;)

yea, because a dev has zero control over their steam store page, and totally can't get ahold of steam developers for assistance with their store page.

i had to install the demo on my pc first, then it was showing up under my games library on the deck, but yea... not being able to see the demo button was a drag.

I'm afraid this is exactly the case. Developers don't have options to change their demos availability on various devices or regions. We reached out to support in the past indicating that our demo is not downloadable on Steam Deck and we hope that it will change in the future.

It should be possible to download the demo if you switch to the desktop mode on Steam Deck. I hope this helps!

Just played the demo 7 hours straight. I've wish-listed the title & will be picking it up later this week. Without a demo to bite into I would have just glossed over the game play footage and missed such a fantastic game.

Similar titles usually don't hold my attention for too long & IMO you've absolutely nailed the gameplay loop.

Great demo. Are there more sounds in the game currently and tutorials for build trees?

Hey! I'm glad you enjoyed it ^^
Could you please let me know what kind of sounds do you have in mind? In the full game, there are more sounds than in the demo, mostly related to other biomes (e.g. different sounds for cutting trees on each biome) or buildings and events (ones that are not available in the demo). There's also more music tracks on other biomes.

When it comes to tutorials, the demo has the same tutorial as the Early Access version. We plan to make some improvements to the tutorial in the future, but this will probably happen closer to the 1.0 release.

如果有无尽模式的demo就好了

Thanks for the demo. It really helps my decision to buy this game
