Why Early Access?

“Since the first prototype, I want to keep working with players and streamers to provide the best possible gaming experience. Therefore, I aim to grow the community around a new type of horror game.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“It is planned until the end of 2024”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“Making a game different from others.

RedNight is in constant evolution until its final version, from the V4 roadmap (18/09/2024) to V5:

Complex AI for the monster: Inspired by the behavior of a cat—curious, elusive, sly, capable of setting traps—it can observe without attacking, escape or appear through traps or windows. Don't turn your back on it; its behavior will be adaptive.
Addition of a dynamic water simulation system in the underground areas (some zones will flood, and glow sticks will be useful to avoid getting lost).
An adaptive system for the monster's arrival and escape (ventilation grids, ducts, windows, false ceilings).
New enemies will be introduced.
A formidable shotgun.
A custom-made healing system.
Recording of new voices in the studio.
Complete game translation.
There will be two difficulty modes:

Tourist: You can heal your wounds, have more ammunition, and enemies will be curious and fearful.
Simulation: You won’t be able to heal, so damage will be permanent, and you’ll have limited ammunition. Enemies will be curious and aggressive.
The game aims to be realistic: no HUD, no information about ammo (voice-overs will assist you), no aim assist, and your health will depend on your injuries. You will be tested to complete the game.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Currently, almost all systems are integrated:

Main menu
In-game menu
Fully customizable key bindings
Save & Load system
Realistic damage system
Collectable and usable item system
Explosive system
Access card system with different levels
Glow stick system
BodyCam system
French voice-overs specifically recorded for the game
Destructible environment system
Numerous optimizations and improvements
The next steps involve the implementation of the story, level designs, and the final systems.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Yes, early access supports the game's financing. Therefore, I want to offer it at a very low price in order to work with as many players as possible. The game's price will increase until its final release.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“As with the early prototype versions, I take all possible feedback into account to enrich the game, offering players a wide range of choices with the best possible quality. I encourage players to share their impressions as much as possible to ensure continuous improvement.”
