Beta[]
In the Beta version of the game the Sky's Blade was originally called the Sky's Blaze. The main villian of the game was originally the evil god Kurliz back from a 5,000 year sleep. Instead of the friends getting captured they were helping David and Thomas. The game was actually orginally going to be called David and Thomas: As Darkness Returns, but the creator thought David and Thomas: 365 Days of Darkness was a better title.
