What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“From the beginning, the development was a single person's job. It took a lot of effort and time. And now it is ready for early access. It is time to introduce the game to you and listen to your feedback. Fellow players, get to know the game and tell what you want to know. Early access is your way to contribute to the development of this game. The content and balance will be improved based on your feedback, bugs will be fixed, the game will become more exciting. You are the ones who can help make the game better and more enjoyable.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The game is to be released in about 6 months. The aim is to make the game as enjoyable and engaging as possible. To release the game from early access, the following points need to be fulfilled:
  • implementing the planned ideas
  • adding essential content
  • adjusting the game balance
  • making the players happy with the obtained results
”

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

“Many other game mechanics are planned. I hope they will gradually appear in the game and take their rightful place in the gameplay.
  • I am planning to add new contents - items, weapons, features, dungeons and much more
  • I intend to improve the balance of the game and make it more solid and polished
  • The game's optimization and performance is planned to be improved
  • The game will likely be translated into more languages
”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Friends, all the features presented in the 'About this game' section have been successfully implemented. Check it out for more details. The current version is fully operational and walkable from start to finish. Yet there are so many ideas and features that could be added. The current amount of content is far less than planned. The balance is still far from perfect. Certainly, there are still bugs and errors, but the game is being improved daily. I hope you will enjoy it and dive into its world for hours.”

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

“The price of the final version will not change. But continuing the development will require additional resources - graphics, music, sounds, and time.”

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

“You will have an opportunity to leave your feedback via the Steam group, Discord, and other ways. Friends, I am waiting for your suggestions for new and existing mechanics, items, quests and adventures! The most interesting and effective of them will be in the game. Let's create the game that we all will be excited about together!”
