Wozu Early Access?

„"Mars 2120 is a brand-new sci-fi metroidvania, with a rich world, strong female lead and a mix of ranged and melee combat.
It is currently in Beta, meaning all major gameplay elements are implemented and filled with amazing content!!!
The Early access is a fantastic way for us to put our game to test in the hands of avid gamers in the community. With the help of experienced gamers, and newcomers alike, we expect to turn MARS 2120 into something really special.
We have been actively working on the development of the game since 2019, but none of that matters if the game is not good enough for all of you!
As we move forward with the performance fine tuning, graphical adjustments and overall improvements over the course of the next few months leading the final release of the game, we found an opportunity to work closer with the community by collecting your feedback, suggestions and ideas, and use this time to onboard new features and improvements to build an even better game."“
