I wanted to take a moment to express my immense love for Spark in the Dark video game demo. As a player, I've been thoroughly captivated by the immersive experience and the intricate gameplay you've crafted.
Your attention to detail is truly remarkable, from the stunning visuals to the seamless mechanics that make every moment engaging and exciting. It's evident that you've poured your heart and soul into this project, and the result is nothing short of spectacular.
Beyond just being entertaining, Spark in the Dark has also sparked my imagination. I eagerly anticipate the full release of the game and any future projects you embark upon.
Number 1 fan. (I got 35hr played on the demo already)
Thank you very much for your support!
We are working on a lot of interesting things in depths of the Dungeon)
Found you on GOG, put you on the whishlist :-)
Hi Stellar Fish, your game is something never seen before!
In one word: awesome!!!
I'd like to pay you something for your work but paypal declines
my payment due to international laws ore something. I live in
Switzerland...
Is there any other way to support your great work like an alternative
link or something?
Thank you for your short reply and with kindest regards,
Mike
Thank you for your support. We really appreciate this.
You will be able to buy the game when it goes to Early Access. That will be a nice reward for us :)
You can count on that :)
Hello Stellar Fish !
Very nice demo, when the full game comes out ? Thanks
Hi, we are working on the game and going to release it to Early Access later, when we will be ready. At the same time we are going to release an updated demo soon. It will bring a lot of new features & improvements. Thank you!
I DID IT!
I Finally did it. I completed level 1 (9 stars) with the rogue:
Astral Collider activated, Al books collected, honored the Ancestor Warlord.
Creatures Killed: 78
Secret Places found: 14
Open locks: 47
Time: 10:12 (37 in-game days)
I have never played a game for so long in one day my gosh, It was scary, but I LOVED the experience and I'm very proud of myself since I was struggling at the beginning. I'm looking forward to see more content of this game, it's amazing.
Thank you Stellar Fish!!!!
I give it a 10/10, I'm gonna tell my friends to play it.
Thank you for feedback! Our congrats! :)
Really looking forward to the full release on this one. The gameplay is truly something fresh that I have not felt before. What a ride!
Thank you!
I totally love this game, it's great. But I must be an awful player 'cause I've been struggling for hours and still don't get more than 1 star :'((.
the game is great tho, I'm just trash
The balance of difficulty levels will be better adjusted. So don't worry, the game will have more smooth gameplay at the release. Thank you!
Hello, I played the demo a few times didn't get that far couse its not a game that I use to play but I really like the idea and vibe of the game.
Will there be some kind of way to expand your inventory its pretty frustrating to drop weapons or armour that has good stats for another one that has totally different but also good stats. Is it possible to save the game when resting, and some kind of stash at the resting place, maybe only for the exploration and adventure playthrough and not for nightmare playthrough.
Just my few cents...✌🏼
I hope you can update about the monster type. At low or high graphics levels, it can be difficult to distinguish between monster types, especially in the dark. Colors are difficult to see and distinguish. Especially the big boss can be seen clearly through the weapon. Some other types are quite difficult. I hope you can add legs or arms or sizes, of things like spiders to make it easier to distinguish. Level 4 spiders are white and easy to see, but levels 1, 2, 3 are quite difficult to distinguish. The same goes for kriss monster. Also, the item used to repair armor doesn't appear when playing characters other than the blacksmith? That seems a bit unfair because all characters can repair weapons but only the blacksmith class can repair armor? Regarding the issue of potions. I think we should make 4 cells using potions that can be customized, and it will be displayed outside like soulike games, it is on the left. Just 4 boxes is enough. I think the most challenging thing is that you create a soullike mode, which means items can be repaired quickly without having to rest. When you rest, all monsters will come back to life. There are potions that will cure permanent effects without having to rest. must depend on rest. Also, I find that repairing weapons and sharpening weapons takes a lot of time, I hope you can fix it faster. In addition, there are cases where I see that when you go to fight monsters, your weapons and clothes are damaged, but the rest room is not available to repair the items, and it says you have rested. During the hardest mode, when I fought 1 or 2 monsters, my equipment was completely damaged. Also, I hope you can make some more female monsters like devils, succubus... it would be more interesting if there were only monsters and men :). Or add a custom female main character, in the "assassin's creed odyssey..." game series, the female main character is no different from the male, just has a smaller, thinner armor but brings a lot of fun, you can consider this. . And hopefully there will be some other NPCs selling gold items or exchanging or assigning some tasks or robbers ambushing you to steal items in this dungeon. Finally, and one more personal opinion, the dark fantasy game genre is currently very rare and hot. Your game line is listed in the introduction as dark fantasy, but I think it has a bit of Fantasy but is not really "dark". Dark here should include figurative and literal meanings. It's not just light and darkness. If you emphasize Dark Fantasy characteristics, your game will become better. Hope you can add Dark Fantasy elements to make this DARK game series more about social aspects, for example integrating the theme of 7 sins into the game, to make the dark fantasy genre more unique:
Some examples of the seven sins in dark fantasy are:
• Pride: Lucifer, prince of hell and the first fallen angel, betrayed God because of his own pride. In the game Diablo, Lucifer is one of the three Prime Evils along with his brothers Baal and Mephisto. He is also the main enemy in the game Darksiders, an action-adventure game whose plot revolves around four horsemen of the apocalypse.
• Greed: Mammon, prince of hell and symbolizes greed. In the game Dante's Inferno, Mammon is a giant demon who lives in the fourth circle of hell, where the greedy and wasteful are punished. He also appears in the game Devil May Cry 4 in the form of a sword with the ability to absorb souls.
• Lust: Asmodeus, prince of hell and expert in seduction2. In the game Demonicon, Asmodeus is a powerful demon capable of controlling those weak to temptation. He is also one of the bosses in the game Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2, a horror action-adventure game.
• Wrath: Behemoth, prince of hell and symbol of anger. In the game Final Fantasy VII, the Behemoth is a ferocious monster shaped like a giant bison. He is also one of the creatures in the game Dark Souls, an action role-playing game famous for its high difficulty.
• Glutton: Beelzebub, prince of hell and lord of the flies. In the game The Binding of Isaac, Beelzebub is one of the nicknames that can be obtained by collecting fly-related items. He is also one of the bosses in the game Silent Hill 3, a survival horror game.
• Envy: Leviathan, prince of hell and manifestation of jealousy. In the game Dragon Age: Origins, Leviathan is a giant sea dragon that lives at the bottom of the ocean. He is also one of the gods in the game God of War III, an action-adventure game set in Greek mythology.
• Sloth: Belphegor, prince of hell and represents laziness. In the game Persona 5, Belphegor is a demon who takes the form of a naked man sitting on a toilet. He is also one of the characters in the game The World Ends with You, an action role-playing game.
The characters in the game have to fight monsters and evil forces that represent these sins. The 7 sins are a popular theme in dark fantasy. They are used to explore the darker and darker aspects of human nature. Thanks.
A very fun game
Hope to have Chinese in the future
Thank you! Yes, I think that's possible in the future.
Excellent work! The atmosphere is fantastic & the setting really feels cold and unforgiving. As a big fan of early Diablo (I & II in particular), you guys really landed on something special here. Just wishlisted it on Steam!
P.S. - If you are in need of custom music, feel free to contact me via itch or my website. Would be happy to work with you if so :).
Thank you! ;)
:) just for FUN - Nightmare Speed Run Gameplay !
Sorry, I don't mean to spoil your game, but these are my questions, I ask because I like and love this game series so much. I also tried playing again and again to find out, but it didn't work. I hope you can answer me. final star i can't done. there are only 2 blue lines which are " you restored the sools freat altar " and "YOu honor the walord of the ancients". So what am I missing to have it all?? my star is 9/10.
I was going to write with pictures, but this website blocked my pictures. so I can only describe it in words.
*** EDIT : i completed nightmare and get all STARS
I/ there are 3 areas I've found, but I don't know what to do.
1/ is where the ladder goes down into the deep hole, it write "the thick inky does not allow you to see what is downthere... there is nothing you can do" ?
2/ a large water tank, I found the faucet, and used an empty bottle to store that water, I got 1 water tank, and 2 3 water bottles, but I still don't know what to do. ?
3/ there is a giant bell, I pushed the lever, but nothing happened and I don't know what to do.?
II/ There are a few areas I see on your screenshot, There are 7 screenshots on this page and 1 video on left, but I can't see them and can't find them? Is it not released yet? 1/ like train tracks,(picture number 6) 2/ the statue alone has lights.(number5) 3/ 2 statues, 1 yellow gate and a drawing under that gate.(number1)
III/ there was a flying monster in the air, it called flying beetles or flies, it haunted me, it was in the dark, I used a lamp, used a bow and arrow to shoot at it, but couldn't shoot it? How to destroy this monster?
Hi! Our congrats for getting all stars on nightmare. That's definitely not easy achievement)
The giant bell currently cannot be activated but it will be able in the future updates.
And yes, some of the screenshots are from deeper tiers of the dungeon which is not included in the current demo. But those tiers will be available on Early Access release.
BTW We released a big update several days ago. So you are welcome to try it :)
Thank you!
Hello, haven't found a new update in a while. Hope you will update the Vietnamese language. Because Google tralaste's English translation into Vietnamese is very easy to understand. Vietnamese is not a difficult language when translated via Google, more than 85% can still be understood. Hope you will add Vietnamese language.
Hi! We are going to release a big update in a nearest days.
Alright, we will add Vietnamese localization later. Thank you!
I really like your game. There are 2 difficult problems I encountered while playing. 1: Can't save because 1 round of exploration takes ~ 2 hours. 2 is too many items, there is no storage mirror in the rest area. I had to throw away those items, and it floated in the air and was difficult to pick up again. If you throw too much gold coins, it is still difficult to collect them. Hopefully there will be a small map, or a hand-drawn map of the areas you've visited and explored to determine where you haven't gone yet. If the darksuol line doesn't have a map, but the elden ring also has to draw a map with illustrated paper, to know which locations have gone or haven't gone. Hope you think about this issue. This game series is good and special. I really like this game like exanima game. I played it and had high hopes, but the developers abandoned it. In addition, I hope you can expand the female character, because I think the female character can wear the same clothes as the male, just a little curvy in the abdomen and a little bigger in the chest and buttocks. less boring than having to look at a male character for several hours in one session. Nowadays, in many games they allow female characters to be customized, otherwise it's a bit lacking :D because a dungeon only has male monsters or male characters. Even the old Assassin's Creed game series also gives the option of a female character, but their female character shares the same armor as the male character :) only the waist is squeezed in a bit and the speed is long, the face is female, The generals are shorter, but they don't make the game less boring. Thank you !
this is fire, dud
I'm really intrigued by this game, but it is lacking some basic settings to make it functional.
Multi monitor is unplayable. Cursor will drift to the other monitor, you will click which will focus on the other monitor and then the game minimizes.
It shouldn't minimize, and there should be a cage cursor option. Both things need to happen. If a streamer is streaming monitor A and then clicks on monitor B, the game will minimize. Doubt you care about my issue but maybe you care about that.
It was a fantastic game, I just finished my first run and escaped the dungeon and loved every part of it. My favorite part of playing this game was reading the lore and learning about the world. Probs to the lore writers they are amazing. The sense of constant danger makes the game even more fun, however, once you learn the enemies the difficulty does tone down a bit but, you can still get tripped up which is excellent. Overall, this was one of the best games I've played in a while and I'm definitely gonna go in for another run.
Thank you very much! :) We are continuing to work on new features, monsters and deeper tiers of the dungeon.
Really enjoying the game, thank you!
C'est SUPER !! J'ai passé pas mal d'heures sur la démo à me faire tuer et à avancer doucement, je ne l'ai pas encore fini en jouant au niveau du milieu. Merci pour cette démo du premier niveau qui est vraiment à la hauteur, c'est un très bon travail. Bonne ambiance sombre fantasy bien sombre, à trouver des indices afin de comprendre ce qui s'y passe. Des armes et des objets dans tous les sens, des passages secrets comme sur les aime, des ennemis pas faciles à ce débarrasser... bref, tout y est, il me tarde d'en découvrir plus au niveau du bestiaire. Le jeu est difficile, mais je dirais plutôt "exigeant" que difficile, et j'adore cela, et c'est parce-qu'il n'est pas facile de progresser qu'il est très intéressant. Mais une fois qu'on l'a bien pris en main, faites attention pour ne pas tomber sur un chevalet qui change à chaque nouvelle partie de place, comme pour les objets. Ce qui fait que l'on peut y jouer plusieurs fois, et ça, c'est super. Les décors sont grandioses, bien sombres, avec beaucoup d’objets et très délirés, et cela donne de la richesse et de l’immersion à l’aventure. Coté jouabilité, j'ai une grande préférence pour le chasseur, qui peut utiliser les pièges et empoisonner ses armes. Le fait de pouvoir trouver un artefact afin de pouvoir revivre et qu'il y ait peu est une très bonne idée, cela donne de la tension supplémentaire au jeu, ce qui est très appréciable et quand on est mort, et bien, on est mort et on recommence un nouveau personnage, et c'est très bien comme cela. bravo à toute l'équipe et vivement la suite :) très beau travail.
Thank you very much for your support! :) We are continuing work on the new features & improvements. We will release dev log soon.
I LOVE this! Cant wait for the ability to save to be in the game. Still havent made it past the first level of the forbidden dungeon though...
Edit: FOund a bug that seriously wounded my spirit with this game. I had some badass armor, a two handed axe that did 63 damage, was killing corpse spiders and undead in two swings. Had the bronze key and went through the relevant door. An undead came out with a two handed hammer and we swung at each other at the EXACT same time. My weapon flew from my hand, fine but THEN I WAS STUCK STANDING straight up! Couldnt move, attack, or do anything at all except watch the undead kill me... It made me so sad I dont think Ill be able to give this another go for a good while.
Thank you for your support! And sorry about some bugs in the game. I hope the next update will fix it.
I am looking forward for your game. The difficulty is from my point of view OK. I died many times and had to restart the game, but when you start use your brain and avoid damage, its fine.
The atmosphere, monsters - wow, really piece of art.
What I was missing is some kind of marker, where I already was. I understand that you dont want minimap, but if you give the player Chalk fo example, so I can write something on the wall or floor, it would be amazing.
Thank you for the demo, gold luck with finalization and launch :)
You have coins to mark visited rooms.
You are right! I was wondering why it shows me "drop coin". Now I know, ty.
Congrats on this project. I think you're really onto something special. I've spent 29 hours testing your recent demo and it already has very polished look. Lightning sets up perfect atmosphere, combat is demanding, movement has good feel already, animations are smooth.
I've already read some complaints about difficulty. Dont dumb this game down guys. As im sure you know, every game has its target audience. This game feels rewarding and satisfying mainly because its not easy to progress. It was great to see that every enemy can roll your toon with ease if you let it. It's a good path and I hope you go down this road with your finish product.
About combat - when I noticed its a good practice to kite spiders around, I got surprised they can attack with their back legs, too? Lol that was great, or I missed something and it was just glitch. if not, very well done.
I've never left any comment related to demo or full game, but your work deserve recognition. Good luck with future release, I'll be following.
Logan
Hi! Yes, we are going to follow by existing way. And yes, spiders can attack with their back legs :)
Thank you for your support!
I tried your new update and I played as a Blacksmith, and first of all, I would say that I do have some experience in playing these kinds of games, but I think it's way too difficult. I got slain multiple times, and in the end it was just frustrating to restart over and over.
Some of the spiders are just too broken. They simply just two shot me.
I recommend that you at least boost the player health with the double amount of hitpoints or make a difficulty selection in the beginning. Otherwise you could implement a save system if your game is meant to be hard.
I really like your game, and I very much wanted to do a thorough playthrough and give you guys some feedback, but unfortunately I never got a chance.
If you adjust the game balance somehow, I would love to give it another shot.
Cheers!
Good day! Can you tell me if Ukrainian will be in the game? Because your studio seems to be from Poltava
Hi, yes, Ukrainian translation is in progress and will be added in a couple of months.
BTW I just received the translation from dev team, so it will be added to the game quite soon :)
Hopefully soon will appear on the Ukrainian page in Steam and in the demo, and VK will follow the ship :), and if it were not for the individual approach PlayUA many thought that you were from Mordor
After 11.9 hours I finally managed to get all ten stars on my character, super fun demo can't wait for the game.
It sounds great! We are planning to release an updated demo at the beginning of October with a various improvements and fixes.
Thank you for your support! :)
Bro HOW I've played 18h and my record is 1 star, last run got me crying :'(
He jugado la demo y me ha parecido increíble. Tiene un gran potencial, tiene todo lo que alguien fan del género dark fantasy podría desear. Y parece bien cargado de lore. Estoy ansioso de ver cuando estará disponible la versión completa para poder disfrutarlo. Si hay alguna fase de feedback o kickstarter estaría dispuesto a ayudar sin duda! Mucho ánimo y seguid así! 👏👏
Thank you for your support!) We are planning to release an updated demo at the beginning of October and then release to Early Access next Spring (2023) with 3 large stage of the dungeon.
This game is great, the atmosphere is amazing and the combat is exciting. I love that there are different subclasses of opponents with different strengths and weaknesses, and the whole design of the dungeon is top-notch.
My selling point though is the story. The combination of desolate and ruined aesthetics, showing that this dungeon once used to be an advanced society, and the scattered lore books and tablets which only hint at what might have happened to it really spark imagination and make the player terrified of what might be lurking in the next room. The fact that enemies get more horrific the more you explore also amplifies the anxiety and really makes you think: "If these creatures wiped out an entire race, what chance do I have?"
Overall this is one of the best dungeon crawlers I've played, and it's just a demo! I really hope they keep expanding upon the history of Dargoth, and I cant wait to see what monstrosities await us in the second level!
EDIT : I would advise the developers to advertise this game a bit more though. Make a subreddit, a youtube channel, anything really. It would be a real shame to see a game with such big potential fail due to not enough people hearing about it!
Thank you for your support! We are working on new features and improvements. And I guess you will like it :)
We are a small team and unfortunately usually don't have enough time for a lot of public activities but we will work on this direction :) Also we will post devlogs here and on Steam when have enough improvements. Thank you!
All of this is great news! Im glad the game is developed by people that care and I honestly cant wait for the next update - you got yourself a supporter!
I wish you best of luck!
Is there a GoFundMe for this? This game tickles my SoulsBorne brain is such good tingly ways. Addicted to it already, and this is just a demo! I need the full game in my life already.
We are working on full version :) Thank you.
Have y'all thought of using GoFundMe to raise money (not assuming you NEED it or anything)? I bet people would happily invest in its development. This already has hints of top tier gaming experience.
Thank you for advising. It may be a helpful idea. We will think about it.
I downloaded this demo yesterday and played it for over 7 hours in total because it was so amazing. I always had a thing for games with brutal difficulty and dark fantasy setting. This game seems like a true spiritual successor to Diablo 1.
Anyway, I wonder if you gonna add more armors in the game? More realistic looking heavy armor would be especially cool (you know with bascinett/houndskull helmet types and such).
Really love your work so far and I can't wait for future demos/full game release.
Thank you for your support! We will work on improvements :) And yes we are planning to improve armors in the game in the future updates visually and add new more detailed properties for them like closed helmet which has resistance from blindness, etc.
Hi there fellow dev!
I just played your game and I loved it. I’m definitely going to play some more, when I have some more time!
I cannot believe, I haven’t noticed this game before today. Looks like it's been out for a quite a while.
I have listed some feedback. Hope you can make good use of it.
Pros
Cons
All in all, I think it’s a very good game. I’m excited to see how this game develops and I would love to play the full game, when it’s ready. Keep it up!
I also have a few questions, because I’m a little curious.
Thank you for great feedback!
We already made some improvements. Now the health level is always displayed when health less than 90%. Also we decreased default sensitivity. (BTW you adjust camera sensitivity in Settings, but I agree the default one was too high). Also we are working on other improvements and new features.
We are the team of 4 men. We are using Standard Render Pipeline in Unity 2021. Currently we are focused on single player game and multiplayer may be theoretically be made only after main game finished. Thank you!
Thanks for your reply!
I'm glad you found my feedback helpful and also that you keep working hard on the game.
First of all, I thought this was a good demo. It was engaging and the atmosphere is great. The lore is intriguing from what I've gathered. I second a save system. It would be handy to have. Is it going to be a permadeath thing or if you die, you just respawn back in a checkpoint? I actually did a video of this game for my channel. I had fun playing it overall. I can't wait for the release!
Thank you for your review and feedback! The save system will be presented in the next updates.
I am a developer myself and love sharing my advice or replies about a few games that look very promising. I do believe this game has alot of potential to rise in the ranks with the likes of POE, NWN, ddo, diablo, dark souls, but I honestly think this can achieve alot more altogether when compiled into a larger broader brush stroke of devoted engineering. It has all the bells and whistles to really become a unique filler gap from old to new. I think this game harkens back to NWN 1/2 in higher fidelity and that is a good thing.
Here is my advice...
I have played/researched alot(35+ yrs) of old school tsr table top rpgs and of course 2nd edition/3rd edition(wotc)aD&D/D&D , including pathfinder which this material(fantasy)is related to(not by source material I mean). Don't forget what those TTRPGS used to create the best experiences(npc encounters, scenery, traps, imagination, story and lore, good vs evil, kingdoms and empires).
Spark in the dark seems to begin this cycle...I love the randomness of equipment on the floors and corpses and the foreboding essences presented. I like the lighting dynamics as a good use of assets to generate actions/responses, the enemies and creatures have great design/animation and the combat while good needs a boost by parrying abilities and more dynamic dodging, but not too much as over imposing to much movement like in neverwinter online is to twitchy...the tighter the better I say.
A 3-6 gig game is not big enough by todays standard seeings how most exceed 15-20+gigs of data.
Making use of imagination to offer gothic/dark fantasy experiences devs have to delve deep into the tropes and look to other sources(sometimes) for fundemantals in order to keep the game actively interesting. Dark souls may or may ot hinder that process so becareful if delving into such genres.
A perma death games can be modified later on to facilitate or lavish leniant gameplay experience and still retain it's original formulae albeit turned downed system called a difficulty setting modifier(2nd, 3rd playthroughs??)
Don't forget the tools of a balanced "grind" system injected into game design as alot of players don't mind replaying levels or areas in order to "perfect" thier own characters designs...making it wholly more satisfying to some and NOT so much to others.
A balanced leveling system with experience point to skills/perk/abilities injected into the game will create a larger intersted mass of players due to longevity as long as ever increasing amounts of content are SURE to come.
Including controller available gameplay should never be absent entirely.
More updated advice soon.....
Thank you you for good feedback and interesting point of view! It makes sense.
Watched some playtime on youtube and it seemed interesting. I love souls like and difficult games. Got the demo and the vibe is amazing right away. pulls you into the darkness, love it. would like a map maybe. would love to know the control tried all my keys and only found move, journal and inventory. maybe a dodge would be nice. most enemies destroy block quickly so that seems like ill never use it. also zoom our just a little bit. it to close especially if you pull multiple enemies. also stat explanations would be great. Overall there is a lot to look forward to here, ill will be following with interest for sure.
Thank you for your support! We will work on improvements :)
¨Played demo on steam. Looking for best place to leave feedback. Point me in right direction if here is not appropriate.
First off, awesome concept, great visuals, feel, lore, in depth systems and mechanics. Overall very positive.
However some issues:
1) Need a save system, I cannot play this game long enough in one sitting to finish it, nor do I have the skills to do so. (Use of safe rooms and gold are my first go this for this mechanic)
2) Need context boxed to pop to better understand what things do and what they mean. ( like +2 dex, Dexterity normally means how well you can hit something, how ever int he current system I dunno if +2 is significant or not or what it truly changes about my character.)
3) Need a map system of some kind. (make it only update in the "safe room" and only readable when In light. For the looks of the map have a look at how the game "The long dark" draws it's map.)
Would love to write more detailed ideas but need a better space to do so.
Thank you for feedback! Save system will be available later (at least saves will work on exit from the game). Also we will improve the UI and add explanation for the hero's stats.
Some kind of maps (maybe) will be presented near to release of the game when the Dungeon levels design will be totally completed.
You can write your suggestions here or on Steam forum where you wish. Thank you for your support!
I played the demo on Steam. Awesome atmosphere and gameplay! Looking forward for the final game :)
Thank you :) we are working on it.
BTW the update will be soon.
kvlt
You guys need to make a subreddit and at least market this a little bit. The demo is great!
