What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“This game was released in Early Access as part of a personal learning experience. My goal was to understand the full process of building, publishing, and maintaining a game on Steam. Now that the project has served its purpose and development has concluded, I will be taking it offline.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The game has been in Early Access for just over a year. As development has now ended, the game will be taken offline shortly and will no longer be available for download or updates.”

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

“Originally, I had plans to expand and refine the game based on feedback — adding more content, polish, and improvements. However, as development has now ended, there will be no full version, and the Early Access build represents the final state of the project.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version of "Heroes Stand Tall: M.E.T.A." has one playable game mode established thus far.”

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

“The game is fully playable in its current form, but it remains a beta project with limited features and rough edges. It represents the final version of what I was able to build during development, and no further updates are planned.”

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

“During the Early Access period, I appreciated all feedback and comments from players. While development has now concluded and there won’t be further updates, the input I received was valuable and helped shape the direction of the project during its active phase.

If have played and tested out Thank You and Very Much Appreciated.”

About This Game

"Heroes Stand Tall: M.E.T.A" is a simple first-person arena shooter built using Unreal Engine and marketplace assets. Created as a personal project, it was developed to learn the full process of making and releasing a game on Steam.

Set in a fast-paced PvP arena, players could choose from a small set of characters and weapons to compete in short, intense death matches. The focus was on core shooting mechanics, quick movement, and getting hands-on experience with FPS game design.

This game is no longer in active development and will be removed from the store. It served as a valuable learning experience and a first step into game development.
