The demo for 304 Seconds is now available on Steam!
The full version of the game will also have subtle but deliberate plot-related differences compared to the demo, so it's advised to play both in order to get the full picture of the story.I've mentioned in my personal post last December that most of 2025 has been pretty rough for me as well as the rest of NoBreadStudio, and truth to be told I've been beating myself up for 304 Seconds taking me such a long time to make... but when I stopped to think about it, I realized that this demo version took nearly the same amount of work as Blankspace did. It might not be as long as Blankspace, but it's actually very similar in terms of assets made. I suppose this is the curse of being a creative person - when you learn more, you want to do more, and to do it better. We constantly strive to make better games, but they also take more time to develop. And I think I might have gone a little bit overboard with the CG count, especially for such a short part of the overall story.Either way, I hope you enjoy the 304 Seconds demo! - NayruRead full article on Community Announcements (NoBreadStudio)
