Why Early Access?

“My goal is to release Slime Slayer in a state where it does not feel like an Early Access game. Early Access is an opportunity to flesh out the mechanics in tandem with community feedback to help explore the features and content that players find most interesting. I really love this game, but I am making it for the people that play it. The best way to make it into a game you all will love too is with community feedback and support.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Slime Slayer will be in early access for no longer than a year. I love the idea of doing post launch patches and updates. I want to be able to fully release the game so players getting into it know they are getting a finished product but with more to come.”

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

“The full version of Slime Slayer will primarily have more content - more runes, more spells, more enemies, more bosses, and more zone variety for players to progress through.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Slime Slayer is currently a fully playable game start to finish, with 6 mechanically distinct elements, 3 base spells each with an evolution for every element, and 10 behavior modifying runes. Each spell, element, and modifier rune has 4 levels that can be upgraded at the Runeforge. Play through 60 rooms, facing 3 bosses and a gauntlet at the end to test you build!”

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

“There are currently no planned price changes post release.”

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

“I primarily want to involve the community throughout the development process by taking players' feedback into account via the Discord channel and Steam forums. Feedback will be considered not only with numbers and data but also with the feeling and experience the game delivers.”
