Why Early Access?

“Crafting strategy games is tough, with plenty of interacting systems and content. Early Access offers us a great opportunity to involve players during the last months of production to gather feedback and ideas in order to release the best game we can!”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Our production plan is already in motion, and while things can change a little bit we are expecting to release the 1.0 build after 6 months of Early Access.”

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

“The Early Access will offer a solid gameplay experience, that we will build upon before reaching 1.0. In a nutshell, we plan to expand the political system and add new battle arenas and units. We will also improve stability, performance and balancing. But most importantly, Early Access will enable us to implement your feedback and ideas into the game!

Note that the Early Access build will only be available in English and French. Other planned languages will be supported for 1.0.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access build is similar to a beta build. Most of the features and content will be available right away, allowing you to rewrite the Revolution the way you want. You will be able to side with any of the 3 factions, gain political power by leveraging the National Convention, or use propaganda to influence select social classes to gain seats in the next elections. And of course, you will be able to improve your infrastructures and recruit new battalions, Colossi, and officiers to lead them into battle.”

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

“Purchasing Bonaparte during the Early Access will come with a discount that reflects the "beta" state of the game, and rewards players who are keen on supporting us right away. We will then increase the price when we reach 1.0.”

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

“We are a tiny (but mighty) indie dev team, and there is a limit in what we can do. But we are adamant about involving players early on. We believe that players' insights, feedback and ideas can empower us to craft a better game. A game that you will enjoy even more.

We are currently sharing monthly dev builds with a small band of insiders, so if you are interested in participating, join our discord and apply!”
