HEY. We have a teaser trailer now. We've also watched it roughly 400 times. It's.. fine. But, check it out: every wishlist tells Steam we exist. Steam does not currently believe we exist. Help us gaslight a corporation. Search Demoman on Steam and wishlist it. #WishlistWednesday

Derek came in halfway through development and immediately started looking at Minecraft Dungeons, Cube World, and Trove for UI inspo. For gameplay? Vampire Survivors, Grind Survivors, Soulstone Survivors. Basically anything with Survivors in the name.

Aaron's inspiration for Demoman? Brotato, Serious Sam, and Duke Nukem — wrapped up in something Nintendo might actually ship. 💣
Make that make sense.

Every game is built on the shoulders of other games. Dave's shoulders are very specifically Enter the Gungeon, Nova Drift, Brotato, Deep Rock Galactic Survivor, and especially Megabonk. Go check them out! 💣

An art teacher told Derek he had something. That nudge turned into web design, then UX, then UI, and eventually an opportunity to work in the industry he'd been a fan of his whole life. Funny how that works. https://t.co/oYB0C2m5Xw

Turns out spending your whole childhood obsessed with games and art was actually a career plan. He just didn't know it yet. Now he's a design generalist in the industry and somehow ended up here. Lucky us. Follow the journey. 🎮 https://t.co/oYB0C2m5Xw

Dave didn't plan to make games, but it turns out a lot of film industry skills transfer pretty well, who knew? Now hes working on Demoman, able to constantly challenge himself, and wittingly dragging Aaron and Derek along with him. Follow the journey. 🎮 https://t.co/oYB0C2m5Xw

18 months of game development. Zero UI. Not a logo in sight. 💣 Derek joined the team and immediately had questions. Unfortunately he also had to find the answers. Follow along. https://t.co/oYB0C2m5Xw

Aaron saw what Dave was building and said "cool, but what if it was completely different." And that's how Demoman became a survival shooter. 💣 No notes. No regrets. Probably. Follow the journey: https://t.co/oYB0C2m5Xw

Before Aaron and Derek, it was just Dave. And Dave had too much free time. And an idea. We'll be posting Dev Logs and Dev Diaries like these in the coming months before wish listing goes live. Join us in discord for more! https://t.co/oYB0C2m5Xw

Nobody asked for it, but we made a game. 💣 Introducing Demoman — a 3D top-down survival roguelite. Join us on all our socials or even in Discord (link in bio) if you want to follow along while we build it. We promise we're normal. 🙂 It's gonna run on Steam Deck too. No big deal
