Thanks! 😊 We appreciate the comparison. While the art style might remind you of Hollow Knight, Spirits of Baciu isn't a Metroidvania. It's a puzzle adventure that blends platforming with point-and-click and environmental puzzles, where exploration and clever thinking are at the core of the experience.

We're excited to announce that the official demo of Spirits of Baciu is now available!

Since then, the project has evolved tremendously. We've redesigned the core gameplay, reworked the mechanics, improved the visuals, and expanded the overall experience based on years of development and player feedback.

The new demo represents the current direction of the game and includes:

• 🧩 A new gameplay structure combining platforming and point-and-click puzzle mechanics
• 🎒 A brand-new inventory system
• 🎮 Full controller support and Steam Deck compatibility
• 🌍 Localization in 14 languages
• 🎙️ English and Italian voice acting for story cinematics
• ✨ Improved visuals and environments

Please note that Spirits of Baciu – Prologue is a standalone chapter and not the official demo of the game. If you'd like to experience the latest version of Spirits of Baciu, download the demo here.

We hope you enjoy it, and we'd love to hear your feedback.

❤️ If you'd like to support the development, don't forget to follow our Kickstarter pre-launch page. Your support will help us bring the game to life with additional localizations, more voice acting, physical rewards, and much more. Every follower helps us build momentum for launch!

Thank you so much! ❤️
