Why Early Access?

“Ashes O is still in the prototyping phase.

Early access is a way to support the project financially and help with development by sending your feedback!

“Ashes O” is the work of one person.

I chose to launch "Ashes O" in early access in order to accelerate the end of its development.
The goal is that the discounted sales of the early access game will allow me to focus exclusively on Ashes and reduce my time working on my food job.

Ashes O is a game where balancing is essential. The increased feedback from early access will allow me to best balance the game for its final release.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

““Ashes – O” is scheduled to be in early access for one year.”

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

“Improved the diversity of enemies and NPCs from previous chapters.
New areas.
New max level.
New enemies.
New stuff.
...

Each new chapter will come with its share of novelties.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game is currently very short.
4 hours of play for a first run.

The prologue as well as the first 3 chapters are available for early access release in December 2023.
The chapters will be added gradually until its final release. The price of the game will increase at the same time as the arrival of new chapters until the final price of the game.”

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

“The earlier you buy the game, the cheaper it will be.

The price of the game will increase approximately every 3 months (at the same time as major content updates) until its final price when it is officially released.”

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

“I would obviously listen to the community for game balancing.

Discord is here for suggestions.

The story and lore of the game are already well defined.”
