SPOILERS for the demo.


The demo was pretty great! The voice acting was a pleasant surprise for me and I really enjoy it and it makes me wonder if the entire game will be fully voice acted or maybe partially so. The art style was very nice and I really like the character designs. The backgrounds and character sprites fit well together in a way that the characters looked like they actually belonged there. The music was pleasant to listen to and didn't grate on my ears as I played through the game. Most music fit the scenes well enough and it never really felt outta place.


I love Fawn the most out of all of them so far. He's the cutest little hoarder I've ever seen and in his defense it doesn't look that bad in his treehouse. His voice is very sweet and soft and it fits him well.  It was very cute to see him act so shyly around Raen at first and it was pretty funny that he couldn't help, but stare down south when Raen tackled him down. He does show an endearing childish side when he warms up to him and knows he won't hurt him. The scene with them sitting under the stars was pretty cute and the fact that he barely noticed he was still holding Raen's hand tell me that he's either pretty attention starved or got so excited, he didn't notice.


We didn't get to really see much of Leos and Cyne though. Leos just kinda popped up to throw poor Raen into the situation he found himself in. I'll say this right now, I don't trust the speaker since it seemed like he or the lord set this up. Leos lying to Raen, Raen getting caught in the archives, and the fact that the lord popped in at just the right moment to save him from an execution. It definitely seems suspicious and I can't wait to see how the story unfolds.

Thank you so much for playing the demo! 

I'm glad you enjoyed this short little look into The Divine Speaker. This is only the start, and Leos comes back in permanently a short while after the demo ends. Cyne doesn't appear for quite a few hours! We also wish we could've shown them off more, but since the demo only covered the prologue and chapter 1 it wasn't really possible.

The rest of the game being fully voiced depends on our Kickstarter (Which launches tomorrow! In around 13 hours!). We really, really hope we can do this, because we believe that it really adds to the experience and we love our voice actors.

Who knows about Leos, the Speaker and the Lord, though! You'll have to play the full game to find out. Let me just say that even if something seems like chance, Raen will quickly find out that maybe things are more planned out than he first thought.

(P.s Fawn's my favourite too, don't tell the other dev)

Thanks for the review!

I figured the full voice acting would be under a stretch goal and I do hope it gets hit after it gets funded. I also do realize Leos came back at the end for the 'Thank you', I just forgot it in my very scattered review. If I can, I'll  donate to the Kickstarter.

Thank you so much! Just reading your review was fantastic.
