Why Early Access?

“I wanted to make a fun and unique game that the community would love (as well as myself) and I feel that New Hire is playable enough in its current stage to bring enjoyment to players. Making it available earlier will allow me to get input from players and make New Hire the best and most fun it can be.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“I'm estimating that it will be less than a year.”

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

“The full version of the game is planned to have multiple days at work, different jobs, and new locations besides the warehouse. In its current state, you complete one shift in the warehouse and there are many endings to achieve.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current version of New Hire has most of the mechanics in place and allows you to go through an entire shift at the warehouse. There are a little over a dozen endings to achieve and loads of clues scattered about as to what happened to your co-workers and why.”

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

“The price of the game will increase as it expands in scope. There will likely be one price increase during Early Access and another at release.”

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

“I want to hear what everyone thinks and what they wish to see in the game! If it's feasible and fits the theme, I'll add it. I'll also take any other complaints or suggestions into consideration and adjust the game to make it more fun for everyone. Through the Steam community and Discord, players will be able to help direct the course of the game!”
