Vad utvecklarna har att säga:

Varför Early Access?

“I am choosing Early Access so that I can gather player feedback in an open setting, and apply that feedback to make Shell of a King a more enjoyable experience for everyone!”

Ungefär hur länge kommer det här spelet att vara i Early Access?

“Around 1 year.”

Hur är det tänkt att den fullständiga versionen ska skilja sig från versionen i Early Access?

“I plan to remove as many bugs as possible, while still introducing exciting new features such as more bosses, enemies, items, secrets, puzzles, NPCs, quests, and cutscenes. I also plan to expand on the story and worldbuilding to create a more cohesive and fantastical world. I lastly hope to balance Shell of a King in such a way that it is fun for players of all skill levels, without damaging the integrity of the experience.”

Hur är det nuvarande läget i versionen med Early Access?

“The game is completable with 3 endings and features many hours of unique gameplay through tough bosses, non-linear exploration, quirky items, and various puzzles. Shell of a King is nearly complete content-wise but is lacking in general polish.”

Kommer spelet att prissättas annorlunda under och efter Early Access?

“Yes - Though I am committed to keeping Shell of a King at an accessible price. Buying the game in Early Access will give you access to the core game for a smaller price tag, and a better say in how development progresses by providing feedback and ideas. After Early Access, the price will increase slightly to reflect a more complete and finished product.”

Hur planerar ni att involvera gemenskapen i er utvecklingsprocess?

“The Shell of a King Official Discord server is the primary place to get involved with the development process. Join to provide feedback, suggest features, and get announcements, everybody is welcome! I am committed to being an active developer and having constant and open communication with my community.”

Om detta spel

The world crumbles, as it yearns for the presence of the old gods. Only the strongest and most depraved beings remain. Imprisoned beneath the royal capital of Agathara, can you fight your way to the surface?

Shell of a King is a top-down 2.5D bullet-hell RPG with an emphasis on tough boss fights, build customization, an original soundtrack, and an interconnected world to explore. A passion-project by a solo dev.

No AI was used in the creation of Shell of a King, in any shape or form.
