Unveiled today is the official trailer for Against Great Darkness. Diving deep into an intense mix of brick-breaking mechanics and bullet-hell chaos. This game invites players on an adventure full of adrenaline, demon slaying action, and disk-juggling challenges.
So here's the gist: Against Great Darkness isn't your everyday game. As a player, you get to pick a pagan deity and take on a mission to free yourself from the grasp of the main antagonist, Lucifer. Your tools? A set of disks. These aren't just ordinary disks. They are also the main defense against waves of demonic adversaries. As you journey deeper into hell's circles, the challenges escalate. Since each demon proves to be tougher than the previous.
I have the game built in Unity so switching to different platforms is pretty easy.
Hitreg Studios has already had people play testing Against Great Darkness on Steam Deck via Proton. Which does run very well. However, there are plans to offer a native Linux build, its just a matter of testing. This means there could be a Linux build in a beta branch soon.
