What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Balancing an action RPG can be a tricky thing. To make the best game I possibly can, I work together with the community and want to gather feedback during Early Access while adding new content continuously.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Depending on how development goes, I plan Early Access to take around 1 year.”

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

“I am planning BattleJuice Alchemist's story to be told in three acts. Early Access will include the story of Act I when it commences. Content like unique items, new rituals, quests and other things will be added during Early Access.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Within the Steam Playtest the first two quests of Act I are fully playable and tutorialized. Combat, crafting and the ritual magic system are working. The procedural generation of levels is implemented and the world is ready for special story-relevant places to be added. When Early Access starts, the story of Act I will be fully playable.
On start there is only localization in English and German languages. Localization into different languages will be added once they are ready soon.

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

“We plan to gradually raise the price as we ship new content and features.”

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

“Please join the to provide feedback and talk to me about the course of development.”

About This Game





Juice, the alchemist, is called to Caribou Creek to fight the demons that roam the lands. As your unique version of Juice you explore the wilderness that once was New England. Fight evil in classic action RPG isometric top down view and in bullet-time close combat.



Find and craft items with game-changing powers. Master BattleJuice Alchemist’s deck-building mechanics by arranging your compilation of flasks to suit your playstyle. Accentuate your character beyond character customization by using ritual magic as long-term buffs. Meet strange creatures from the Crossroads while the dark plot of BattleJuice Alchemist unravels.



UNIQUE ITEMS AND CHARACTER BUILDS


Loot and Craft
As an alchemist you wear no armor and wield no sword, but you rain down fire on your enemies. Find flasks with unique properties in the wilderness or craft them at your workbench. In deck-building style you create a compilation of flasks which you randomly draw from.



Unique Skill System
In BattleJuice Alchemist, your flasks are your skills. Every flask can be used the normal way and at times in a supercharged, "jucified" way for stronger effects. Some flasks have powers attached to them that drastically change their effects when used, which allows you to develop your own playstyle.

EXPLORE A DARK WORLD


Procedural Landscapes, Hand-crafted Towns
The world of BattleJuice Alchemist is separated into vast levels of procedural landscape. Every valley, sea, river, mountain, building, stone, tree and item is placed by a unique algorithm. This allows you to continue exploring after you completed the main story. Quest locations are still hand-crafted to tell compelling stories.



Dark Lands to Discover
You are influenced by daytime and weather effects and so are your enemies. But they are also buffed by the evermore spawning demons’ presence. Find dark altars to hold their influence at bay and discover many other secrets.

ENGAGING COMBAT


Classic isometric ARPG action
Fight your enemies from afar in classic top down view. Throw explosive or freezing flasks at them, prepare ambushes of explosive barrels. Use the “Frog Hop” flask to jump away from danger or right into close combat.



Close Combat with Bullet-time
Enter close combat with an enemy, where you can interact hands on by dodging or using smoke flasks to avoid being hit. Manage your resources and flasks during these intense one on one battles against your awe-inspiring enemies from the Crossroads.
