Patreon Indefinitely Frozen

Starting today, the Patreon will be frozen indefinitely! You can subscribe to the Patreon and those who are already subscribed will not be charged monthly!

The reasoning behind this is due to the fact that since the game is essentially complete, with the exception of images, it wouldn't feel right to charge you monthly since no updates will be coming until images are able to be added.

Thank you for all of your support!

Regarding the future of Mount Swell Games and Demon Lord Alice as well as this Patreon

Since the final gameplay and story update has now been released, I want to to talk about what the future of the project will look like.

My role on this project is essentially finished for now since I am just waiting for art to be finished and then be added to the game. As art is finished, I will be ...

DLA Chapter 3 Expansion Update ($5 Post)

Since two weeks have passed, the latest update will now become available for the $5 tier as well!

DLA Chapter 3 Expansion Update

Here's this month's update! This month, I focused on improving Chapter 3 which I feel like has been the weakest Chapter of the bunch for a long time. The new additions to the chapter should hopefully go a long way when it comes to improving the feel of the chapter! I hope you like this update!

DLA Chapter 2 Overhaul Bugfix

There was an issue in Chapter 2 where you couldn't progress further into the Chapter once you reached the point where you get Vidhu.

This has now been fixed and the fix has been uploaded to the Mega folder. You will need to redownload the whole game again, I'm really sorry about that. Hopefully there are no other gamebreaking bugs in this update.

Demon Lord Alice - Side Chapter 1 Update

The first side chapter that I had talked about a while ago is now here! This update contains the "main story" of this Side Chapter! It's a bit on the shorter side compared to the main chapters, however, there will be a lot of side content for this side chapter in a future update! It will most likely not be the next update as I'm planning on improving the main chapters of the game with the next chapter, adding new side content and features into them based on feedback I have gotten from the sur...

DLA Side Story 1 Devlog

Hello, I've been working on the first Side Story for most of this month! The scope of the full side story will be fairly large (much larger than I initially intended) and will most likely not be fully finished this month. However, I am working as much as I can to get the "main story" of the Side Story done before this month is over! Currently, most of the maps for that are done, so I mostly have scripting and writing left!

Aside from that, this Side Story (and most likely the rest of t...
