Why Early Access?

“The game is in development and provided as early access - it is being constantly developed and improved, with the help of everyone play testing on the Discord Server. This is your game, not mine. I aim to provide updates frequently - at least weekly. The Discord server is the primary place for chat and game suggestions - I am very active on the Discord server.

Right now, I want you to join us on this journey, and build up a community of players to help steer the development of the game - join in on the Discord server and be part of the game!

All feedback is welcome and encouraged! :)

Thank you - stay safe!
Simon.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“6 months is the current estimate.”

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

“Constant development will provide an ever-growing open world, with more places to discover, and more to experience. New features will be added to expand on gameplay, whether to provide more options to building and crafting, more weapons or more enemies. Gameplay will be constantly improved, along with performance.

The direction the game takes is heavily based upon input from those on the Discord Server.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game is completely playable with a large, ever-growing, open world.

You can build a base with a number of house parts. You can craft many items. You can forge metal and materials. You can use a number of weapons from spears to pistols, from automatic guns to grenades. Chained objects like fuses, fuse boxes, lights and doors exist. A number of different enemies exist - zombies, dinosaurs, bandits, wild animals - with options to disable to customise your game.

Your character is based on skills and stats that develop as you use them, based on characteristics that you can set. Or set them all to fully developed if you prefer.

Walk, run or drive vehicles to travel around.

A good number of places to discover already exists. Without spoiling your enjoyment, these range from military bases, to abandoned villages - from motels to remote buildings - from hidden caves to farms.

A large number of settings exist that allow you to tailor the game to your preferences.

There is also a "Play Pit" in which all game features can be tested.

Finally, you can enter Sandbox ("God") mode by pressing Num Pad 2 for unlimited resources and safety.”

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

“This is likely. It is only fair to offer a lower price during early access. Those who buy in early access will not have to re-purchase.”

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

“Constantly! The Discord Server is the primary place to discuss the game, new features, and have fun! :)”
