Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We're using Early Access to release the three Episodes of The Guardian of Nature episodically, using player feedback to create a rounded experience of the game. The first of three planned Episodes is currently released. The Guardian of Nature will leave Early Access with the release of Episode 3.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The Guardian of Nature will be in Early Access until the release of the third and final Episode. The development of the third Episode will be finished in spring 2026.”

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

“The Guardian of Nature is following an episodic release schedule. The Early Access version of the game will let players experience new Episodes as they're completed — each one offering the full story and gameplay experience upon release with integrated feedback by the player community.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Episode 1 is completed and fully playable.”

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

“Depending on the scope of the project, we may raise the final price of the game with the full release of the game and all its 3 episodes. ”

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

“We have implemented a feedback form directly into the game and we read every single message that is submitted. Also, the Community Hub on Steam is a central place for us to collect feedback by the players.”
