Why Early Access?

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The game will be in Early Access for about six months.”

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

“For the full version I plan to add new maps, modes, mechanics and ideas implemented directly from the community's feedback.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current version provides players with one mode and one map, there is already plenty of replayability thanks to randomization systems and the nature of multiplayer.”

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

“The price will not change during Early Access.
A minor raise of price could happen but only if the content in the game will justify it.”

SURVIVE AS A SCIENTIST

As a Scientist you must scavenge for supplies, mantain your sanity and find a weapon to defend yourself against a monster that could be any of your fellow teammates.
Be very careful, trusting the wrong person could get you killed!

TERRORIZE AS THE SKIN STEALER
