Why Early Access?

“Sigil of the Magi is a deck-building roguelite, a genre which benefits immensely from player feedback. Only through enough player volume will we truly get an accurate picture regarding certain key gameplay elements like balance, difficulty, replayability etc.

I believe players' feedback and active participation will ultimately make Sigil of the Magi a better game.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“At least 6 months, but more realistically a year. Fine-tuning a game will likely involve multiple iterations and it's better to take a more measured approach rather than rush through it.”

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

“We plan to add more content leading up to the full version such as:
- More cards with unique mechanics for every player-controlled Champion.
- More faction(s), relics, and events.
- More end-game content in the form of higher difficulty modes. Certain enemies will not only have higher health and attack but also new skills and passive abilities. New mechanics will also be introduced.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current version has 2 factions (6 Champions in total) and 3 very different 'chapters' to progress through. The core elements of the game are already built and you can complete a 'run' of the entire game.

More content will be added during early access as mentioned above.”

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

“Yes, the plan is to have a very slight increase in pricing as major milestones are reached, all the way to eventual full release.”

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

“Sigil's official Discord channel and the Steam forum itself will be the 2 major places where feedback will be collected. We will pay close attention to this feedback and act accordingly.

Beyond feedback we also encourage discussion regarding potential new features. I find these discussions can often be the source of novel ideas and they might just end up being implemented into the game.”
