What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“The Signal is a game with a wide and deep world of discovery and to make that truly the best it can be, we want to work with the community and strive for success with their feedback. With so much player interaction planned for this world, Early Access is a great way to collaborate and improve the quality of the game with the player experience at the forefront of development.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We are aiming to be in Early Access for no more than one year, however that is subject to change based on the players' feedback and as we work towards the highest quality experience to a full release.”

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

“In addition to bug fixes and improvements on balance and core gameplay, we plan to add a variety of deep biomes, more materials to discover to expand building and crafting, as well as adding additional game mechanics and satisfying amount of mystery to the lore.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game is currently in the internal Alpha stage, but we have a scanning, gathering and crafting game loop supported by various modes of exploration and continuing to flesh out the biomes for a full experience. Please refer to the about section for more and we will continue to update this section with more information as things progress.”

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

“We do expect the price to increase on full launch due to the additional content. We will clearly communicate any details about this as we work towards that stage so players can make an informed decision about their purchase.”

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

“We will be active on Steam through blogs and forums, our Discord server and other social media. There will also be a website with even more information and further engagement.”

“If you enjoyed the base building in Fallout 4 or the feeling of stepping out onto an unknown world in No Man’s Sky, The Signal is probably worth checking out.”

About This Game



The last remaining humans have abandoned Earth in search of a new home. As a climate refugee, you have been tasked with scouting an uncharted alien planet filled with wonder and peril. As you venture forth solo or with friends, you could swear your every step is being monitored…


CHART A NEW WORLD

You’ve come here to make a new start for humanity, but in the process discover a world teeming with intriguing life, mysterious artifacts, and strange phenomena. Scan the flora, fauna, geological and alien landmarks to understand the environment’s function and value.

As you explore, you encounter perilous terrain, unpredictable weather, and local wildlife that is wary of your presence. Build familiarity with the planet and its inhabitants to steer weather systems and creature behaviour, and in the process forge a path through a world that’s not entirely welcoming to your presence. Your footprint will not go unnoticed though, as the planet and its wildlife will also be watching, and reacting to, your every action.


UNLIMITED INVENTION

Necessity is the mother of invention - words that have driven humanity forward throughout time. You must traverse and adapt to multiple biomes, ranging from tranquil glades and rolling hills, to wind-sheared canyons and frigid tundra. From small handheld scanners to massive canyon-spanning bridges, save your inventions as blueprints to be shared and iterated on by members of your expedition and the wider community.

With few combat options at your disposal, you’ll have to prepare deployable craftables for any eventuality; rapidly deploy a launchpad to send that rampaging beast flying or have a vehicle ready-to-go to escape to temporary safety. With millions of potential combinations, flex your creative muscles to make bespoke vehicles, equipment, and infrastructure from a wide range of functionality fragments.


SURVIVE AND UNCOVER

Survival requires a deep understanding of the ecosystem as your discoveries fuel your ability to invent the infrastructure, equipment, and vehicles needed to progress. They also reveal cryptic patterns all around you, tied into the ecosystem and linked to ancient alien relics. Delve deeper into the planet to unravel its secrets and determine your fate on this captivating new world.

In THE SIGNAL you’ll use your inventiveness and curiosity to unearth a brand-new universe with questions about our relationship with the environment and technology. Do the mysterious patterns emanating from once dormant alien ruins help or hinder your expedition and will you be ready to make decisions that could alter the path of humanity?
