What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Batch 17 is a work in progress. We want to release content over time slowly until the game is complete and ready for a 1.0 release.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Batch 17 has undergone a massive rewrite over the last few months to move towards procedurally generated content. As such we continue to add content and fixes on a weekly basis. We expect to stay in Early Access until all scenes are completed and the story fleshed out. We have no ETA at this time.”

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

“The full version of our game will have 5 playable scenes. Our current build has only 2 of those available to the public. Besides that players can expect better performance and gameplay as EA progresses.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“After several months of feedback on the game, we feel very confident this version is welcoming to new players, and enjoyable to play. There are still some bugs - being worked every single day, but there's a ton of content to find, and with a procedural system for leveling, loot, and AI encounters, there's hours and hours worth of farming and encounters to play through.”

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

“We reduced the price for the game for early access - to entice more players to have fun and give us their valuable feedback. This game is designed for the community after all. When the game is released fully - we expect to put a price tag on the game, commiserate with player feedback.”

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

“Our discord channel is always monitored by the devs. Additionally we involve the community through our twitter, facebook, and mailing list. If anyone has a question - we definitely encourage them to reach out to us on discord, we are literally always on!”

FUTURE CONTENT

Further Gameplay Mechanics

- More weapons
- More armor types
- PvP specific maps / encounters
- Story expansion / PvE scenes
