Why Early Access?

“Though Mewnition is still fairly bare-bones, we've had a lot of fun playing the early-game content with family and friends, and we'd like to share that experience beyond our team. As a 2-person developer & artist team, Early Access is a valuable opportunity to connect with our community at large, and receive valuable player feedback at this early stage of development. With the help of our players, we are looking forward to growing the game and refining its custom, in-house engine as we work towards delivering the best version of this game that can possibly exist.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We are targeting a Winter 2025 official release”

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

“Our fundamental combat & co-op mechanics will largely remain the same. We plan to evolve the combat progression during Early Access by introducing additional regions. With these regions, we hope to deliver new environments to explore, new weapons to wield, new enemies to vanquish, new minigames to play, and new stories to be told.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“This version currently features the first playable region, and showcases the beginning of the game's core mechanics. Customize your cat avatar in the character creator, and build a base with your friends on the housing sandbox island. Craft & discover a few rudimentary weapons & artifacts, and test your skills against the first few co-op combat challenges. Play a few rounds of a minigame with friends, and buy some new accessories from a shopkeep.

There may be some bugs, especially with our custom engine, so be sure to try out the demo to make sure the game runs for you. Still, we have extensively tested the engine to ensure a smooth & stable multiplayer experience, and we have carefully crafted our systems to minimize the risk of gamebreaking bugs. We are designing the game so that players can continue using the same save file as new regions & content are released throughout Early Access, so we've gone to great lengths to make sure our save system is robust.”

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

“The price will increase when we release the full version. We may raise the price during Early Access as more content is released. Keep an eye on our Events & Announcements, as we will always notify our community of upcoming price changes.”

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

“We'll be reading through the Steam Forums/Community Hub periodically, and and we'll be gathering feedback as well on our other platforms such as Itch.io & IndieDB. We're a small team, and a lot of our time & effort will be invested into developing the game, but we'll do our best to address any issues and/or concerns as quickly as we can.”
