Catechesis Demo
Catechesis Demo puts you into the opening hour of Catechesis, a story-driven Adventure/RPG from Baroque Decay. Play as Daniel and begin the story: meet main characters, explore the first dungeons, and confront demons in night-time encounters. The demo highlights anime-style cutscenes and in-game illustrations alongside pixel graphics, slower-paced twin-stick combat with ranged and melee options, stealth that responds to sound and light, and exploration using a flashlight or candles. It supports Windows, macOS, and Linux, offers interface and subtitle translations for multiple languages (no full audio), and has a strong positive response from players on the store.
