What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“This game is releasing in early access to gather community input to ensure the game is finalized into a well rounded fun experience that can reach as many players as possible.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The target is around 6 months to 1 year.”

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

“The full version of this game is planned to be a more well polished, content filled version of the early access release. It is planned to contain more possible variations in animals and environment. Early player feedback will be invaluable to creating this world.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Early access will be a slightly scaled down version of the final release. It will contain the full planned experience in this game but may be finished in a shorter playtime than the full game, items may be a little more inexpensive and some weapons or animal behaviors may be over or under tuned. It currently has a 5km x 5km map with several biomes and climates. There is full multiplayer support (Dedicated server and self hosted) and a full modding kit that you can download and create mods and mod maps for the game.”

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

“I am not planning to change the price after early access.”

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

“The community will be main influence in finalizing and fleshing out the content and experience in this game. They will be able to suggest new changes and will help to expand the amount of hardware able to play this game through their invaluable feedback in the steam forums.”

About This Game

Evolution Survival is a planetary survival sandbox where every plant, creature, and the whole ecosystem evolves in real time. Build biodomes, engineer genetics, and shape the environment to keep your player alive as your star ages, the atmosphere shifts, and natural selection rewrites the world around you. Your actions influence which species thrive, mutate, or go extinct. You can survive alone, or control the world with your friends, and create a safe haven in this hostile environment.

Evolution:

The star, plants, animals, and rocks will change as time moves past, the game simulates evolution as if hundreds of generations happen with each new offspring. Animals may sprout 7 legs and 5 mouths, maybe trees will prefer to be upside down. The star, if massive enough may go supernova after expanding as it burns helium, becoming a neutron star or black hole. Perhaps it will just become a white dwarf and fade slowly for trillions of years. Maybe you will not get a star at all, just a failed star called a brown dwarf that glows for a little while before fizzing out. The Rocks will erode away and leave pebbles and stones for you to pick up and use in your crafting.

*K-Type main sequence star lifecycle

Gameplay:

Hunt unique animals and forage the wilderness to survive. Create shelters and outposts to craft better tools and equip yourself to conquer the world's resources. As you play the animals around you will interact with each other and the plants that surround them. You can tame, breed, and ride them as you explore this unforgiving place. Lay low in the jungle and use precision strikes to keep yourself fed, or build a large base in the high plains and assert your territorial control with high caliber artillery and perimeter defenses. As you are not the only one in this universe to know about this planet, you may run into an intelligent species eager to claim its resources for their own. It's up to you to determine the outcome of your interactions. But rest assured, they want your resources. Pay attention to your sun as it ages. Once it's gone, all life is on borrowed time...

PVP/Multiplayer:

Create a dedicated server, or host a session on your machine with your friends, and if you wish, open up either to the public. Conquer your surroundings, drill for the most prized resources, and adapt to this world. Aim to plunder the loot of other players and build impregnable strongholds. Survival will not be easy with more enemies around.
