Why Early Access?

“We know that strategy/card games require lots of balancing, iterations, and feedback from players. We want to open up our development process to get as much input from interested players as possible.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect to release the Full Windows PC Version in mid-2024.”

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

“The full version should have lots of ship and fleet customization, balanced gameplay, and airtight user interactions.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Right now, we're focusing on building out the baseline gameplay of a multiplayer competition experience. Currently, players can play matches both on Matchmaking, as well as private matches with friends. All 10 ship types have been implemented and built into gameplay as well as a variety of different maps.”

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

“Starcade FACTIONS will always be free-to-play! In-game purchases are available for customization, but we are going to work to ensure that our game is never pay-to-win.”

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

“The best place to interact with us is through our Discord: https://discord.gg/starcadearcade
Starcade Arcade is a small team of 2: a solo dev and a community manager. We will do our best to manage feedback and look forward to getting to know you.”
