What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Hello everyone, I am Lao Bai! This is a dark-themed game that my team and I have been working on since July 2017. It has been almost 7 years now and weHello everyone, I'm Lao Bai! This is a dark-themed game that I and a few buddies have been working on can no longer work on it in isolation. We need your feedback and to hear your voices so that we can improve the game together with enthusiasts. Although since July 2017, almost 7 years now. We can't keep working on it in isolation anymore, I need to receive feedback from you all, hear your voices, and work together with enthusiasts to improve the game this game still has many flaws, We will continue to fix it and I believe that with constant modifications, it will eventually meet~ Although there are still many flaws in this game our expectations and yours!”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Currently, there are two of us developing the game. I am in charge of design and coding while Ciba is responsible for the art (that guy who often does live streams). Based on our current progress, we feel that we still need at least one more year.”

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

“We plan to discuss and improve the game with players from the community and groups. Currently, we have a general direction of combining dark elements with traditional Chinese culture of cultivation, creating a "Dark Cultivation" game.

Additionally, we will gradually update the game, introducing many unique bosses such as the White Jade Spider, the Black Evil Wolf, the Old Turtle of the Water Moon Cave, the Absolute Shadow Dragon of the Jueying Peak, the Abyssal Exile Dragon of the Yuyuan Pool, the Fire Boss of the Fire Core Treasure Room, the Golden Chi Yang, and the underground passage of the Crescent Town, etc.

If you have any good suggestions, please join our community and discussion group to criticize and modify the game together with everyone.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“You can check the "Main Features" section in the "About this game" for more information. It covers the current storyline and side quests, which will take approximately 10 hours to complete.

In addition, you can follow the guidance in the "Travel Log" to defeat powerful late-game bosses such as Xiaoman the Haunted, Leopard Taro, and Cloud-Soaring Dragon.”

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

“The price may increase moderately when we release the game.”

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

“We eagerly await and appreciate your feedback. We will collect user feedback through the community. We usually read comments to get an overall impression of players' opinions on various features or game balance and difficulty, to see if we have overlooked or missed anything. Please feel free to leave a message. Thank you.
