Leaden Sky - 2024 DEMO
Hello there! The development of this project just resumed! For the recent 2 years I was busy with learning 3D game development and improving my skills, It was worth it because now I know 3D game development on a pro level and I can remake this game in future as a full first person shooter like I always wanted.
However I am fully aware that people really liked the 2D version as well so I will be making this one too.
Today I've prepared for you a special update, this one introduces many improvements to the story, weapons, balance and other changes that I have established while working on my 3D project, here is the list of improvements for the 2024 (2D) Update:
- all weapons were remade to be more realistic and closer resemble real life counterparts
- fixed aiming, it's much smoother, much easier to aim and it's a lot more responsive
- enemy hit reactions are rebablanced and improved, now you can definietely see that you hit the enemy because they have more intensive hit animations, it also adds balance to human enemies as they can't shoot you while being hit
- rebalanced AI
- rebalanced armour and damage
- added more environment detail
- improvements to the story itself, the story remains mostly the same but with one big difference - Kyle now worked at the power plant as a security guard, it's a change introduced in LS:Nightmares and the story has been properly updated in 2D aswell
- improved notes and lore elements
- improved cutscene art
- Kyle now wears his full body armour much earlier
- reduced keyhunting and backtracking
- simplified platforming section
- small changes to cutscene pacing
I hope you will like the update, enjoy!

The Leaden Sky Nightmare video that you played, can you play that with those soldiers in it already? I have been following you for a while and enjoy playing your games!
Hello there, the one from video is the upcoming update for LS:Nightmares, it's been in development for few months now and it's a huge overhaul and improvement of the entire game, it's aimed to take LS:N closer to the original (2D Leaden Sky) and improve upon all the existing mechanics, the animations, gunplay, visuals, sounds etc. and the storytelling.
It's not out yet, but it will be either this month or next one, can't say for sure but I'm working hard on it.
If you bought LS:Nightmares you will be able to play it no problem once it's out.
The one thing i was looking forward to this year, Helghast has blessed us with an update to the greatest eye candy of indie games
