Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“EFP has been purposefully designed to live out its Early Access life hand-in-hand with the community that grows around it. While we have a content roadmap, the timeline of EA is specifically being handled to prioritize and react to your input on all aspects of the game; new features, environments, items, characters, and balancing will all be taking in your feedback. ”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We are targeting roughly 1 year, but the timing is based on when we feel that the core of the game has been firmly established alongside the community.”

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

“The full 1.0 version is intended to feature substantially more content, improved balance, bug fixes, performance, hardware compatibility, lore and story, and a ton of surprises both for you and for us, as we both build out our roadmap for content, but also as the community grows and shows us what they're enthusiastic about.

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Please refer to the ABOUT THIS GAME section for the current features of the game.”

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

“We plan to raise the price at 1.0 release, once significant content has been added.”

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

“The Mob Entertainment Discord server will be the primary location for us to take in feedback, and we will have dedicated channels for EFP.

Our intention is that while you may not always be directly talking to the developers, they will have access to suggestions, ideas, likes, dislikes, and all of the feedback that is offered both in the form of direct feedback, and the conversations that you are having there. As it becomes possible, additional methods of gathering feedback such as surveys or questionnaires may be offered to players around specific topics to better understand community sentiment and gather data.

We plan to highlight specific changes or features which are made either in whole or in part due to feedback from the community, and to offer as best we can, the reasoning and design intent behind changes that we make, so that the conversation can go both ways.

In addition to this, we will have an in-game reporting tool for bugs and issues that emerge.”

About This Game

ESCAPE FROM PLAYTIME: A Smiling Critters Adventure is a co-op survival horror experience set in the Poppy Playtime universe.

Visit the website to join the Playtest

Explore the dark depths of an abandoned toy factory and fight to stay alive against the creatures that lurk in the shadows.

Each run places you into a unique section of the facility: classrooms, warehouses, testing labs, and the dark corridors connecting them all. The denizens of the factory - fellow rejected Playtime Co. creations - stalk the decaying halls, hunting for prey.

You and your friends must work together and utilize your surroundings if you hope to make it out of the factory in one piece.

Play solo or team up with 1-3 friends in a fight for survival inside Playtime Co. More Critters means more ground covered and more chances for something to go horribly wrong, all enabled with proximity voice chat.

A mysterious Voice sends players into the facility to collect scattered parts and resources. Gather what you need, bring it back safely, and try not to ask too loudly who or what you are really working for.

Use whatever the factory gives you to stay alive. Search for tools, uncover clues, find hiding spots, create distractions, and use alternate routes to outmaneuver the rejected Playtime Co. creations stalking the halls.

Crawl, jump, and climb through every nook and cranny of the Playtime Co. factory as a Smiling Critter and experience some of the most iconic Poppy Playtime locations through a new (smaller) set of eyes.

It’s Playtime Co. as you know it, with a twist. The mysterious Voice seems to be altering the factory’s layout, creating procedurally generated environments that change with each run.

Early Access — Launches with the full eight-character roster, one starter zone, and a core enemy lineup. New zones, enemies, and features coming based on your feedback.
