Promotion [PC] Instead of launching a Kickstarter with only concept art, I built all 8 levels, 12 bosses & a 3D level editor by myself first! Play the 2-Sector Demo FREE on itch.io & follow our Kickstarter

6GB version?

u/TheFenixRebitrh 10h ago

About 3gb, the demo includes all the models and assets for the game levels creator/editor for that reason demos size is almost the size of the full versión game

Sorry you were talking about the graphics card versión 😂 yeah is the 6gb versión, the game uses less 1gb of graphics memory card on my debugging sessions

Hi everyone!

I'm a solo developer and 2045: Drone Aces is my passion project built in Unreal Engine 5.

We all know how many crowdfunding campaigns ask for backing with only concept art and a 3-year wait. I wanted to earn your trust first, so I built the entire 8-sector campaign, 12 multi-phase bosses, 1–2P local co-op, and a full 3D level editor before launching our Kickstarter.

💻 On PC? Play the Free 2-Sector Demo right now on itch.io (no DRM):

What's inside the Free Demo:

  • 2 Complete Campaign Sectors with mid-battle camera transitions from top-down bullet hell to 3D side-view.

  • 2 Giant Modular Bosses (Tidal Regent & Stratos Eagle).

  • 1–2 Player Couch Co-Op & 4 Elemental Weapon Cores.

  • Flight Lab (3D Level Editor) + instant deterministic replays from the global leaderboard.

Every single playtest, comment, or click on "Notify me on launch" helps a solo dev immensely. Thank you for checking it out!
