What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“While the core gameplay is in place, we would like to add many additions and tweaks in the coming weeks and months. Launching in Early Access allows us to redefine our ideas based on your feedback and incorporate new suggestions from the community.
Every new weapon, item, or effect has exciting and drastic implications for how you experience runs, creating more unique playstyles and combinations.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Our plan is to stay no longer than 6 months in Early Access.”

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

“We intend to increase the number of characters, items, and enemy types to create opportunities for more in-depth adjustments making each run feel unique and very different based on your choices and builds.
Our goal is further to tweak, balance, and polish existing and new elements based on testing and player feedback.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“We finished the core mechanics and the general structure of the game. Initially, you can choose between 6 player characters with unique traits and 51+ items plus approximately 23 enemies and two bosses to encounter. Players can already unlock progression and achievements for all existing elements.”

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

“After Early Access, the price may increase depending on the content we add to the final version.”

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

“We want to include our players in the development process as much as possible. We have a Discord server where our community can discuss the latest versions of the game; where you can get involved by posting suggestions, feedback and engaging in moderated discussions with us developers.”
