At BitSummit PUNCH, room6 announced that the defense action game Thunder of the DemonKing, developed by GoatGoatStudio, has joined its publishing lineup. The game, which has been gaining attention through event demos and a Steam demo, was playable at the booth with two stages of the latest build. Players control a revived Demon King using lightning magic to fend off invading soldiers.
room6's booth at BitSummit PUNCH was styled as a secret café, with subdued furniture and bookshelves creating a relaxed atmosphere. Among the titles on display, Thunder of the DemonKing stood out. Developed by GoatGoatStudio, the game casts players as a Demon King awakened from a long slumber, using lightning magic to repel waves of kingdom soldiers. Controls are simple: left-click to strike lightning, right-click to grab and place objects. Players collect magic stones to power up, choosing between attack range, new skills, or stat boosts. The sheep butler character guides the player through a tutorial with deadpan praise, establishing a laid-back tone. Soldiers attack in groups, shouting 'Wah wah wah,' and the Demon King has a health gauge that depletes if enemies get close. The game has been building buzz through previous event appearances and a Steam demo.
