Why Early Access?

“We’re launching Odinfall into Early Access first because we want to get the game into your hands to gather feedback directly from the community. It’s your ongoing contributions that will help us perfect the rogue-lite loop and really polish the game before it heads into 1.0. With this input, we can make the game the god-slaying ride it’s supposed to be!”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We’re planning to be in Early Access for around 3 months, with the main areas of development focusing on additional polish, improving the balancing, and making the game feel super compelling run after run.

We know this isn't a very long amount of time for an Early Access period. However, as the game is content complete the Early Access time will be almost entirely used to listen to and implement your feedback.”

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

“We've been working on Odinfall for a good amount of time already to get it ready for release, so the version that launches into Early Access will be content complete, with all of the content (ie. levels, worlds, modes & weapons) that we plan to include in the game's full 1.0 release. We know that rogue-lite players expect an experience that keeps them jumping back in run after run, so we're using these final few months in Early Access to listen to player feedback, fine-tune the game's balancing, and make sure the game feels the best it can for 1.0.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game is content complete, with snappy and responsive combat and tonnes of content to battle through.

Currently, Odinfall is undergoing QA testing to fix as many bugs as possible. However, after launching into Early Access, more people will be experiencing our game than ever before. Especially in the co-op multiplayer that was built by us from scratch.

Therefore, you may unfortunately encounter some bugs (not just the enemy ones that you squish).

Launching in Early Access allows us to identify these issues and react to them, rather than have players discover them after the final release.”

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

“The price will remain the same for the Early Access and 1.0 release.”

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

“We’d love to get as much feedback from the community as possible. We encourage everyone who would like to be a part of the game’s community to join our Discord and leave their thoughts in the Steam forums.

We want to know:
Which character feels great to play and why?
Did anything go wrong during your playtime?
Did anything feel unfair or unfun to play?
Did any parts feel too difficult or too easy?

Receiving feedback from the community will help us balance and polish the game as we work towards the full 1.0 launch.”
