Demo Launch Day

After many fruitful weeks of careful additions, plenty of performance testing and tuning, and a good heap of testing, we have a version ready for public consumption. 

We discovered at the 11th hour that the demo required administrator level access, and we added shims to the installer to make the demo execution automatic, but it was a bit of a fudge, so we went back and made sure the demo (and indeed ALL Reloaded standalones) could run in standard user mode which means there is no write access required to the program files area.  This delayed the demo launch a few hours, but we felt it was worth it. I am typing this at 4PM, building the 'final' demo installer ready for one last batch of tests before release.  For those in the States, you should have your demo served up for dinner, and for those in jolly old England, you'll get yours after tea!  We are eager to learn what you think of our first standalone demo level!

In other news, during my exhaustive testing over the weekend I snapped a few shots which I thought were funny.

Taking A Break From The Game

Maybe there is a silly competition to be had in the future to grab the funniest ragdoll death poses in the demo.  Here is another one:

Dat's Godda Hurt

The demo release will be announced in all the usual places, so keep your eyes peeled today, and we hope you enjoy the game. My challenge to you; can you get to the end of the level without dying?  Good luck!
