Why Early Access?

“The game requires balancing of resources, missions, etc. It is hard to predict how different players will progress, how fast they will unlock things, etc.

The game has statistics sent to server (disclosed when first opened and in privacy disclosure, also possible to be disabled) that can help me with overall progression (anonymously).

Hopefully some players will be also keen to join discord and reddit, being able to provide more specific feedback on what needs improvement and what's a winner.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Depends on feedback. I would hope to release early 2027 even if some advanced mines are missing (the game can be expanded later). The goal right now is to reach "Alkali Metals" ... we can expand the game as we see fit beyond that (not sure how to expand beyond superheavies, that might be a hard limit of how much we can provide new content).”

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

“The initial full version should have a few more missions or boons as deemed necessary for the player to reach the end game (alkali metals). Some builds might get very slow, needing "hints" to progress, so we may add mission nodes to add such hints.

We have several future ideas in mind (and feel free to send us new ones), but we want to first focus in making sure the current content can be progressed before introducing new one.

We may introduce new content if we think some players are already at that stage, but will depend on the feedback we gather during pre-release.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Fully playable, no major bugs expected (crashes, soft locks, etc). If anything feels like blocking progress (except a bit of time, as it is an idle game) please let us know.”

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

“The pricing as of now is free. We plan on adding a single-purchase at alkali metals when we expand the game (probably as DLC but mechanics not defined yet).

If you like the game, join our socials because if we start pricing it, we would love to give a free copy for anyone who joined before the release of the game.”

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

“We are open for suggestions, but keep in mind that new features will be considered for a later version, right now we want to polish the content it is already in.

Inside the game you will find links to our socials.”
