Here's a Tumblr masterpost, answering some questions regarding the state of MESMALIE beyond the demo.

And, in case you're curious about reaching all the demo ending variations, I made a cheat sheet for these... Spoiler warning, of course. (The full game won't have a cheat sheet)

If you enjoyed the demo, please consider buying its soundtrack on Bandcamp to support me!

Had a really good time with it!

Even made a video review of it: https://youtu.be/ctQfbQYHREs?si=bZjUXOdXrk2g3-jV

Adorable little demo, from the writing to the art and the sound design, all of it comes together so well! Mesmer is a delight so far and has a very pretty design, and there are enough hooks and threads that I'm excited to see it more fleshed out!

Chat did we just stumble upon a mystical and surrealist point and click adventure taking some pointers from Ena, Toby Fox and maybe Vib-ribbon? (Mesmer looks very vector-y). All-in-all this is great and I'm looking forward to this game's final release.

I played this demo on steam and I gotta say WOW. Found it through looking for new unheard of games and I am NOT disappointed. I really can't wait to play the rest, because the humor and music got me hooked. It feels like toby fox made a point and click game and I mean it!

Thank you so much,!!!

Genuinely an amazing demo. There's so much clear attention to detail in the art, game design, sound design, all of it!

I wish you the best in developing this project and I will be there day one when it comes out to play the full game because it was truly a wonderful experience and I really can't wait to see more!

Simply phenomenal work!

Hi there! I loved your demo, it was super fun and I can't wait to see what happens in the other sessions!! The endings are so fun to hunt for, although I didn't get them all (NOOOO) I didn't realize a counter came up once you beat the demo LOL. But trying so much stuff is so fun you did a great job with all the things we can do! Mesmer is such a fun and interesting character I can't wait to see them more! Anyways thanks so much for this and I hope your development goes smoothly!
