Why Early Access?

“With the main game mechanics in place, a big chunk of development time will go to adding content, most of which will use already established code. Players can already play fully-featured runs, with additional music, stages, classes and abilities as development progresses.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“A year.”

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

“The structure of the game will change little, but we plan on adding content that increases replay value such as Characters, Companions, Weapons, Stages, etc. Another potential goal is to improve the hub so that the game breaks beyond the usual scope of a Survivor-Like.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“A full 7-Nights run is available for the player to experience. Each night is 3 minutes long, and provides breathing room between waves of enemies. Players can mix and match their loadout from a list of Characters, Companions and Weapons. There is currently one stage with procedurally generated variance (terrain and doodads), and one re-ocurring boss monster.”

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

“The game will always be free. Early Access is used to indicate that the game is not feature complete yet.”

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

“The community will be able to suggest and vote on new characters, companions, weapons, etc. through the game's Steam forums.”
