What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We are looking to develop the game alongside its players. We feel like we currently have achieved a playable base from which there are multiple directions to take the game. We have a lot of ideas that we wish to try in practice.

The players will be able to provide their feedback either on our Discord Server, the Steam Forums, or directly to our e-mail.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The current goal is the have all of the more fundamental design decisions and implementations done within a year. However, past this we still plan on continuing development content, updates, and so on - albeit at a lower pace.”

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

“The full release is planned to have a more refined and expanded game loop. Exactly what that entails and what path the game design will take remains to be seen and is something we are going to discover together with you - the players.

Moreover having a more developed core design, the amount of raw content is planned to be increased over time in line with the path the game design is taking.

Examples of what 'raw content' might entail are things such as types of enemies, upgrades, weapons, and levels.

We are also planning to look into adding a Co-op multiplayer mode, which is something we've built the game we have so far in mind of.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The core game is on a mechanical level completely functional with an entire working core gameplay loop. You survive against an onslaught of enemies infinitely spawning at an increasing difficulty.”

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

“We plan to scale the price of the game according to the amount of time and effort being put into it. Our main drive to develop this game is to create something that is entertaining, not to generate income. We are not planning for the development of this game to be an economical win. Any changing in pricing would be to fund further development. It would also be properly communicated long before it takes effect as not to make any possible buyer feel cheated.”

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

“We plan to be greatly communicative and close with out players. We want to develop this game with them and be able to shape what it becomes with us.

This communication could be in the form of socializing in our Discord server, creating threads on the Steam Forum, or mailing us bug reports and issues.”
