Why Early Access?

“Skydome is still in development, we reached a phase where we need more help from the community. We aim to deliver the best experience on Multiplayer Tower Defense, therefore the input of players is fundamental for a number of reasons.

More than just giving feedback, or helping us with bugs, the community’s help shines a light in the path that we’ll follow, making all the difference in the game’s experience. From server performance, optimization to a variety of computer specs, matchmaking queue and challenge and Champion’s balancing.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We don’t plan on staying very long in Early Access. Our expectation is that Skydome will be up to 3 months in this stage. The final launch will happen as soon as we can put the polish we want to the whole experience.”

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

“Skydome is a free-to-play, live game. This means that even after release, it will have its systems bettered and will be constantly updated with relevant new content. Release version will have a better experience overall, much more polished. In addition it will have more Champions, Towers and challenges available to the players.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“We are in the final stretch of development. Gameplay is solid and we have plenty of content available. Friends list, parties, social profile with stats, history and competitive rankings. Players can use their inventory to customize their Champions, Walls, Victory Poses, Icons, Banners and more.

Gameplay wise there's 1 map for the main game mode, with in-match progression. 6 Champions with their own unique Tower for players to play as. In addition, player can build another 4 types of Towers, battle 13 troop classes and complete 13 challenges found throughout the jungle.”

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

“Skydome is a free-to-play game at Early Access and will continue to be after release.”

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

“Getting the game in the hands of people, will allow us to get a number of data that’s pertinent to the development. We will actively use our Discord (discord.gg/skydome) to promote the conversation around the Skydome, gathering feedback and opinions on the content already available in-game.

In addition, we want to know what the players would like to see in the future, having the community directly influence future updates. We'll also reward players that participate with cosmetic rewards to be used in-game.”
