Why Early Access?

“Early Access allows us to release our game in an unfinished yet playable state, and then allow the community to influence the experience over time until we reach a fully realised title.

Everything (except the Goblins) in our game is subject to change, and we want to discuss our development plans with those that play it.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The maximum amout of time we want this to stay in early access is two years. Our aim is to create something that stands the test of time, but don't want it to be lost in the ever-expanding sea of abandoned early access titles.”

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

“We plan to increase the amount of content by a wide margin. Including more boss fights, more unique enemy variants, more maps and expanding the lore of the world.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current state represents the basic gameplay loop of our title.

In our "About This" section, you can see the already implemented features.”

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

“Apart from a first launch discount, the game will remain the same price before and after release. No one wants to buy an early access game, and have to get their friends to buy a more expensive version when it finally does fully release.”

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

“We want your ideas and concepts to make our game better for everybody. With the energy of the community we can look extensively at the issues and most fun/immersive parts, then really craft the best game we can.
