“With the assistance of an early access community the project can be built organically and provide invaluable feed back and creative insight. Much of the development process was originally done in an echo chamber, without directly involving too many people.

Opening the design and development process up to a wider audience allows for a strong foundation to be built upon and added to with fresh and new ideas.

The intention is for this to be a positive experience between people who want to see how games are made from the ground up, but also to participate. This is a strong driving force for making a better game, and to learn through experience for all involved.”

Phiên bản đầy đủ sẽ có sự khác biệt thế nào so với phiên bản truy cập sớm?

“A fully fleshed out single-player campaign that can be played (and mastered) by 3 different characters that offer completely different strategies to achieve with forking character paths.

An "over world" in which you can choose your next mission locations, which range from abandoned cities, fortified Raider camps, fledgling settlements to trade wares and accomplish objectives, otherworldly anomalies, and procedurally generated encounters both in the form of combat and story progression.

A suite of trial challenges and unlocks based on difficulty levels ranging from standard difficulties to extreme modifiers for only the most hardened survivors.

The game is built from the ground up to be played in 30-45 minute bite sized "missions" and each of these offer unique game rules and features that allow for unlocking other features depending how well the player performs in each challenge.

Support to continually add on new content (missions, features, characters) and more interesting and involved challenges is the plan for the fully fleshed out version.”
