Why Early Access?

“Pixels is our first title and we want to make sure its a game that lives up to our standards. On top of that, we realize that community feedback is just as important. We are launching PIXELS in Early Access to enable the community to influence the development of the game which will help us create a better experience overall. While Early Access players are playing an incomplete game, we hope they enjoy the content that's currently avaliable and look forward to the updates to come!

PIXELS is a great fit for Early Access given its modular design. Allowing new Pixels, Coaches, Moves, etc. to be added on a frequent basis. We will share more details after the Early Access launch of the game!”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The plan is to release this game after we complete our roadmap items and feel satisfied that the game is ready for release. We are aiming for a full 1.0 release date in Q1 2024 but may delay later if necessary.”

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

“The full version of Pixels will have additional Pixels, Stewards, and Tile Types added to the game. New bosses, new Metameals and new Gears will also be added to increase the variety for the roguelike experience. Also some other surprises!”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current early access version features a large-ish map with 3 Cities to battle through, about 25 Pixels total to discover/unlock with 200+ moves. There are 8 different mystery tile types and the map features random elements so every run will always be different. The equipment system has also been added with Gear and Metameals to equip on your Pixels. The game also features an upgrade system where you can earn currency which can be used to purchase upgrades between runs.”

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

“There will be absolutely NO price increase during Early Access.

We may raise the price when PIXELS leaves Early Access. If we decide to do so, we will be sure to let the community know with our launch annoucement.”

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

“We will constantly be monitoring Steam discussions and checking reviews for feedback and suggestions. Also, please email us at anigramstudios at gmail dot com. We are also on Discord so please join if you want to follow the game closely or get a quicker response! This game is our passion and we will do the best we can to make sure everyone has a great experience!”
