Why Early Access?

“We are a small experienced team, who is creating a cooperative indie game. We were inspired by such games as Walking Dead SS, Caliber Zero and Radius. The release of the game in early access is the first step that will allow us to resign from work and devote ourselves to Death Harvest. We care about the dialog with the community and choosing the final direction of the game's development together.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan to reach version 1.0 in one and a half or two years. The production time is dependable on the community support and interest in the product. We would like to achieve such sales that would allow us to work full-time on the game development. On interest in the game depends also whether we will continue working to reach version 3.0.”

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