Beyond The Mist: Beginnings (Demo)
A downloadable game
Story
You are a young adult adrift in life, suffocating under the yoke of your oppressive parents. Feeling out of sync with the rest of the world, you yearn for freedom and life beyond the bounds of your prison.
You find it in the form of a ravishing stranger and a long lost city, calling out to you across space and time. Something is beckoning underneath the ancient city's glimmering white tiles, something old and powerful. Someone.
Will you resist the call beyond the veil and the promise of belonging it brings, or will you let yourself go and embrace the path destiny has set before you?
The choice is yours. Magnustor is waiting for you.

Geez, I haven't even played the demo yet, but as soon as I saw Soul Stone War I was in!
I absolutely love that IF, and have been waiting excitedly for book 3!❤️
Downloading now!
uhh am i trippin or did this story go through major edit?? because i remember playing this when it first came out and-
!SPOILER-ISH!
-theres this whole scene of us running out of the house and getting on the plane with zach then having a convo with cy about us and zach but when i played the newest update the story ended right after our fight with mom ???
dear author please reply before i convince myself that i made up the whole thing lmaooo
The ART is gorgeous!!
Omg Cy is beautiful 😭
I seem to be running into a lot of errors or "exceptions" on the mac vers? Can't seem to get past the first meeting with Zach(?) with no option to continue but I can't tell if it's a problem on my end ;u;
here's the error:
"I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.
While running game code:
File "game/script.rpy", line 523, in script
jump lastiner
ScriptError: could not find label 'lastiner'."
Thanks for the report! The bug will be fixed with the next update :)
I dont know if im just challenged or what but i cant find the demo :(((( im on here doesn't show it anywhere im special so maybe I'm over looking 😑
No same.. i was trying to download to finally play it but theres no download option...
Omg, it was set to hidden for some reason... Should be fixed now!
Eeeee thank you so much !!!
Should be fixed now!
OH MY GOSH, that was so heart-wrenching but OH SO GOOD :'D please please continue this story, it's spectacular, amazing and so sweet (both love interests are wonderful loving <3)
I will not stop until it's FINISHED! Promise :)
Awesome :D
Just played the apk. This is very, very promising! It's unfortunate that Cy seems to disappear at the end of the Zach route.
On android version with male mc When I picked Zack to be a woman and the option to only be attracted to men My character talked to Cy as if he was attracted to Zach
Could you please tell me what the exact wording was? 🙏
The same happened to me with female MC and being only attracted to men, both of them were male but I chose the option that says that you're not personally attracted to Zack, but the problem starts since then until the end
Great demo so far! Makes me feel things :')
Although you definitely need to read through it again as there are quite a few spelling mistakes/missing words and exception screens. Also when I pick the friend option for Cy they are still referred to as a lover.
Could you tell me what the exact problem wording was? 🙏 It's not easy to pinpoint misfiring code otherwise...
I had the same issue with cy
the story line sounds good ill wait for the web browser game if there is one
I'm afraid that won't be possible with this game. The web browser version is experimental still, and you'd have to download a folder anyway.
awe that sucks
Download doesn't seem to work via the app, unfortunately
I'm solely on mobile for this sort of thing, is there going to be an android compatible download? The current one for PC doesn't work with any of my apps.
Absolutely, I'm working on the mobile builds right now. I should have it ready in the next couple of days.
🔥dope
Thank you!
Damn it. that hit straight to the heart. I loved it... very touching story i may be crying rn. thank you
You're very welcome. So glad you liked it!
