Why Early Access?

“Legend of Orion: Adventure is fully playable. The game currently features weapons, items, a dungeon-builder, dungeon assets, monsters, and the ability to save-and-access the dungeons you and your friends have built. Several non-essential features are still in production: more monsters, more dungeon features (signs, puzzle tools, bridges, stairs, raising/lowing the floor, etc), new tilesets, monster hats, player hats, and more. These features will be tested and released incrementally to allow customers to provide feedback during the production of the game.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“No later than October 2021.”

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

“These are the plans for the full version of the game:

Monsters - Greater variety, improved combat mechanics, fun gold-purchased cosmetics, gold-purchased monster level.

Dungeons - More tilesets, more cosmetic assets, floors can be raised and lowered to create stairs and terraces. Puzzle tools, custom signs/books, traps.

Treasure Vault - The Treasure Vault feature will allow you to select a primary dungeon which defends your treasure. Players slaying monsters in your dungeon will earn BOTH of you gold. If the player successfully reaches your treasure, they will receive a bonus gold reward at your expense. Monsters and traps will the levelable and customizable through gold you have earned from clearing dungeons.

Dungeon Rating - Players will be able to rate the dungeons they play. These ratings will show on the list of currently playable dungeons. We are discussing the possibility of eventually adding a Ranking system that automatically calculates dungeon difficulty and shows the player dungeons that are most acceptable for their current Rank.

Campaign Mode - We hope to add a story-driven mode that introduces you to the world and lore of Orion, making it easier to unlock/meet new heroes and push through early-game levelling.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“We are currently at version 0.3.2, in this build we have a working Dungeon Builder allowing players to build, save, test, and share their creations. This build also allows for players to login to our servers and play dungeons that other players have shared.”

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

“Yes, it will be released at a lower price point.”

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

“We have a feedback/bug report feature on our website. We are also opening a forum for more detailed feedback and game discussion. As stated above, player feedback is very important to us.”
