Why Early Access?

“Luminis: Heal Them All is an ambitious open-world survival shooter, primarily developed by 1 person. With this in mind, since this is our first game, we really will need constant player feedback to improve upon to grow. We need to gather data and to test our features with our game being in Early Access. It is a must for us to develop our game as it allows for much flexibility.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Around 1-2 years. It will very much depend on how the players react, how the community grows, and how the development evolves.

We will keep listening to player feedback and improve our gameplay, art and narrative quality. We will introduce more enemy and weapon types, abilities and storyline elements.”

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

“
The differences between the Demo, the Early Access and the Final Version of the game lie mainly in terms of completion. For a complete roadmap / timeline of our development progress, please visit https://miraclestudio.games/timeline

The major elements are the following:
In terms of storyline progress:
- In the Demo, you have Chapter 1
- In EA, we have Chapters 1 & 2
- in the Final Version, we have Chapters 1-3

In terms of enemy types:
- In the Demo, we have 1 boss and basic plant, animal and robot enemies
- In EA, we have demo content + 1-3 additional bosses and more advanced robots
- In the Final Version, we have EA content + 1-3 additional bosses and more enemy types.

In terms of weapons:
- In the Demo, we have 9 weapon types
- In EA, we will have around 12-16 weapon types (including demo content)
- In the Final Version, we will have around 16-20 (including EA content)

In addition, we will also add new features to the inventory system, weapon handling, ammunition system, map size, trading system, enemy AI behaviors, storyline changes. All these will be influenced by player feedback.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“We already have a solid foundation that is shown in our demo. The Early Access and the Final Version will be built from this. We have an immersive storyline, a variety enemy units set up and decent weapons to use, also diverse items to loot in the world.

This demo is closer to a prologue — a full 1–2 hours of content with high-quality assets included. We’ll continue optimizing, but we wanted players to experience the world of Luminis without compromise. We know the demo’s install size is large, but that’s because every environment, animation, and mechanics is fully included to showcase what Luminis is meant to be.”

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

“Yes. The game's price will keep increasing as more features and content are being added.”

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

“We plan to release posts on the development process frequently and engage with the community by answering their comments and reviews in person.”
