What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Being a small indie game studio, we feel Early Access provides great opportunity to elicit feedback on several aspects of the game. For instance, in a VR context, we'd like to understand if the current in-game puzzles are too easy or too difficult, as we ponder adding 1-2 more to extend gameplay. Also, while the fundamental game mechanics are stable, we continue to polish some of the graphical elements (i.e.- VR controller visualizations) to further improve player's experience.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect it to be in Early Access for 4-6 months as we incorporate player feedback.”

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

“As mentioned before, we plan to polish some of the existing graphical elements (for instance, controller visualizations). Also, we'd like to add additional puzzles to deepen player's experience. Once we have feedback on the existing puzzle quality, we can asses best path forward.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version is in a relatively stable playable state.
Refer to the 'About this game' section for further details related to gameplay. All VR components are fully functional, and running at full frame-rates per headset manufacturer's specs.
Ultimately, there will be 4 distinct levels, encompassing 4 fully realized environments. 3 of 4 levels are fully defined and should present a satisfying experience for our early-access adopters. The 4th level is anticipated to be added in summer of 2019.
We are still defining the 'hint' system for players, and as as we get feedback, we will refine that even more.
The 'save' state mechanics are not fully functional (as of May 24, 2019), but we will rectify that in the first patch update (likely within 3 weeks of initial release).”

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

“We expect Fullf Release price to increase gradually as we further add/refine game content.”

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

“We would like to provide user forum where developers and players interact to discuss these planned improvements.”

About This Game

The Toymaker's Apprentice is a journey into the twisted world of the toymaker's offspring and his army of evil.
Growing up in a small village, the apprentice patiently learned the craft of toymaking from his adopted father. Eventually, the young boy grew an interest in the dark arts, and his subsequent toy-like manifestations grew more and more sinister.
One day, the apprentice turned on his father, and unleashed his evil toys on the town, forever casting the town into darkness and enslaving its humble citizens.

In this immersive VR adventure, the player must escape the dungeon where he has been doomed, and embark on a quest to capture the Apprentice's evil toys.
If he succeeds, he will be transported to the Apprentice's land where he will face off in a final battle for lasting freedom.
