Why Early Access?

“"I'm working alone with my girlfriend, who is an artist, to create a game. Our initial pre-alpha release is designed to provide access to anyone who wants to help with further development.

The official public alpha launch is scheduled for December 2023. Since then, we have built a strong foundation for Last Whisper. Our development process involves gradually adding new features without neglecting the resolution of existing issues. I strive to stay on track and enhance the project with each update."”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“"In approximately one year, we have implemented the majority of our core mechanics. This progress allows us to enter the pre-alpha stage. Our goal is to reach a point where players can have a higher level of confidence in both my skills and the project itself. We intend to involve the community in expanding on gameplay ideas and mechanics.

Furthermore, I have plans to expand the team."”

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

“"Last Whispers is an ambitious game/project. I have some amazing ideas for the future. I am attempting to create a post-apocalyptic interactive world—a vision of the kind of survival game that we all want to play.

Now that the basic mechanics are in place, I am really interested in involving the community more for ideas and future builds."

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“"Many of our features have already been implemented into the game. This is a kind of 'base' build—something that is not perfect but can be improved as we move forward.

Crafting Base system: Similar to Rust, players can build bases.

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

“"We don't expect the price to drop, but there's a possibility that the price may increase as we near a more polished game."”

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

“"Like I said, 'Play alone or die together.' I am very active and reachable. I post lots of devblogs to keep the community informed about exactly what I'm working on!"”
