This is a thread to discuss my story, Trial of the Demon Hunter. I am also currently writing an update to this trilogy: you can play test the update’s demo below.

Summary:

Battle the forces of evil in this thrilling interactive fantasy novel! When a powerful demon destroys your village, you embark on a perilous journey alongside your shape-shifting apprentice and trusty partner, determined to avenge your shattered home and banish this devil back to the Netherworld.

Trial of the Demon Hunter is an interactive novel by Samuel Harrison Young where your choices control the story. The game is text-based with occasional vivid illustrations, a unique soundtrack, and driven by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.

  • Play as male, female, or non-binary; romance males or females
    *line_break
  • Romance your demon hunter partner or wait for love down the road
    *line_break
  • Battle goblins, witches, vampires, and demons

Will you fight for justice, revenge, or riches and glory?

As this update is for a game that is over a decade old, I will mostly be looking for feedback pertaining to bugs and typos, but please feel free to tell me what you liked or didn’t like as well, even though I may not be making major changes based off that feedback.

@Samuel_H_Young “Failure of the Demon Hunter”
I’m hoping that there will still be some way to do well and it won’t just be a railroaded “you suck” :stuck_out_tongue:

@Storm
Thanks :smiley:

@Redgrave
Of course not! This isn’t Heroes Rise :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
Also, it’s just a provisional title and I’ll probably change it before I finish

Ok

@Samuel_H_Young Oooh! Burn!

I actually quite like the title (I like all of them, in fact), but I can see why you might want to change it. I’m really looking forward to seeing the first book come out as a hosted game, and I’ll be sure to buy it straight away!

@Redgrave
Haha:P

Yeah I’ll see what people think after they see the beta. Thanks :smiley: I appreciate it!

This looks interesting I will try it out

@Apex
Thank you :)! Hopefully it’ll be published within the next couple weeks.

So not to sound impatient but is cog still trying to release this by the end of January I’ve actually been looking forward to this one seems interesting just trying to know weather to get my hopes up or no alright love you all! Lol :slight_smile:

@TheFallen
I hope so :slight_smile: I’ve incorporated music into it, which may be part of the reason it’s taking them so long to get it published, as there’s no precedent for it.

@Samuel_H_Young

Keep an eye on the stores. I found out about Unnatural’s actual release via pm from a fellow forum member prior to Cogs announcement.
