Varför Early Access?

“As a game completely designed for Valve Index, Hero Index aggressively adopts finger gesture control without compromise. We want to know how players actually think about this brand-new control scheme.

We've paid lots of effort into this brand-new control scheme and being proud of our works so far. However, it is still experimental. We want to know how players actually think about it so we can make it better.

Besides, though the game is still under development, the core experience we aim to provide is already there, that is, dive into the middle of an epic space battle with power suit. Flying in the space and watching a 500 meters battleship explode in front of you is breathtaking. We believe that the game already worth the price at its current state.

One more thing, we also want to provide some inspiration to other game developer with Hero Index. We like to see more games for Valve Index come out. Finger tracking should become the standard of VR content and Valve Index deserves more exclusive games. We don't call ourselves Fingertip Games for no reason :)”
