What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“The core concept of the game is to create an accessible RTS, core mechanics are now working however gameplay is limited to a Single player Campaign. The goal of releasing in early access is to invite feedback and suggestions in particular feedback from those with physical impairments that bar them from traditional RTS games and those with limited vision.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“3 to 6 months.”

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

“At launch all three factions are fully animated and unit logic is implemented but only one is playable in the campaign, the goal is give the other two there own campaigns then create a skirmish mode this will come after the campaigns as creating a general CPU player will be far more difficult than the narrow focused computer player in the campaign.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“One fully playable campaign featuring three alien races only Anubi playable, limited options menu.”

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

“Completely free.”

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

“Community involvement will be vital the entire 81 quadrant camera system is built from my assumptions of what is needed to make the Real Time Strategy game genre accessible. The entire reason for releasing the game so soon is to determine if its fit for purpose, in addition decisions like applying the map texture in 9 variations with lightest colour in bottom left (where you spawn) and progressively getting darker shifting the colour pallet with the darkest in top right (enemy base) is once again based on assumptions of what benefits the colour blind so feedback from those within these communities will be highly valued and effect the course of development.”
