Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early access for my previous game, Vigilantes, was a very positive experience, resulting in a much better game and many nice online interactions. My goal is to make Prometheus Wept the best game it possibly can be. To do this, I'll need different perspectives, constructive criticism, and fresh ideas to tune the game systems, improve balance, level of polish, user friendliness and stability. ”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Early access will likely last in the region of 2.5 years. My plan is to work consistently and for as long as needed, rather than rushing to release sometime sub-par on a given date. I plan to make 4-6 major releases during early access with follow-up updates to address balance and stability. ”

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

“At present, you can play through the first act of the game. The plan is to include three acts in the full release, each with a different gameplay focus, new factions and environments. Furthermore, the intention is to expand upon the number of items, perks, crafting options, and unique allies available in the game. Mac and Linux support is also planned, but this will happen later in the development cycle.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Act 1 has a decent level of polish and will likely take 6-10 hours to complete. The vast majority of the coding is complete, and the game has been heavily tested, so while there will be an occasional bug, you won't be tripping over one every few minutes. If you do encounter a bug, please post it on the forums, and I'll go after it like a sidewinder.”

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

“The intention is to gradually increase the price as the second and third acts are incrementally added. The full release price is likely to be in the region of 30-50% greater than the initial Early Access price.”

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

“Community feedback was essential to improving and shaping my last game, Vigilantes. The same will be true for Prometheus Wept. I will be very active and responsive on the Steam forums, using your feedback to guide the development of the game.”

About This Game

About

Prometheus Wept is a party and action point turn based RPG, which offers hardcore squad-level combat, simultaneous battles between cyberspace and the physical world, meaningful choices, deep character progression and an advanced crafting system.

Imagine a near-future earth in which digital technology has become even more integrated and essential to daily life. Imagine the sudden corruption of all this technology, in less than a day, by a potent virus, which affects everything from the smart kettle in your home to automated agriculture and transport systems. Imagine generations of chaos, widespread loss of life, technical understanding, and the fragmenting of nations into insular city states. Assume the role of a wandering Classical Technologist surviving among the splintered remnants of humanity, searching for and attempting to restore the technological relics of humanity's golden age.

Key Features

  • System infiltration: Transfer your character's consciousness into the treacherous environment of a corrupted computer system, while allies protect you from physical world threats. Employ a range of scripts (abilities) to overcome corrupted system security, and commandeer physical world systems like defenses and doors from within the machine.

  • Turn (AP) and Party Based Tactical Combat: battle it out with a variety of melee, ranged and explosive weapons, with aimed and special attacks, powerful perk-based abilities, attacks of opportunity and more.

  • Use The Environment To Your Advantage: Destroy cover to leave enemies exposed, use a variety of environmental objects against your foes, and exploit interactions between the primal forces of fire, water and electricity to your advantage.

  • Deep Character Progression: Build your team using the ADAPTED character system, which comprises 7 stats, 17 skills and a huge variety of perks. Throughout the game, you will meet and ally with exceptional individuals, each with their own unique set of perks.

  • Meaningful Choices, Little and Large: Will you pay an odd, roadside priest for a blessing or ignore him? Will you help overthrow a questionable oligarchy, or cement their position against growing unrest? After all, in the post virus world, civilized is a relative term.

  • Deep Crafting System: Create a large variety of weapons, armour, explosives, gadgets, combat stims and medical supplies. The quality of the crafted item is determined by the quality of the blueprints you possess, your crafting skill and the quality of the components used.
