Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“STEAM TRIGGER is already playable from beginning to end, but we want to release it in Early Access to refine the final experience with player feedback. The core game, including exploration, combat, enemies, traps, and major boss battles, is already in place. During Early Access, we will focus on balance adjustments, quality-of-life improvements, bug fixes, and additional polish.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We currently expect the Early Access period to last around 3 to 6 months, depending on player feedback and the scope of improvements needed before the full release.”

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

“The full version is planned to include further polish, balance improvements, bug fixes, quality-of-life updates, and possible additional content based on player feedback. We do not plan to fundamentally change the core gameplay, but we want to improve the overall experience before leaving Early Access.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current Early Access version includes the main playable experience, major areas, enemies, traps, and multi-phase boss battles. Players can experience the core structure of STEAM TRIGGER, including exploration and fast-retry boss combat.”

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

“The price may increase when the game leaves Early Access, depending on the amount of additional content and improvements added during development.”

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

“We will collect feedback through Steam forums, reviews, and social media. We are especially interested in feedback on boss balance, difficulty, controls, exploration flow, bugs, and quality-of-life improvements.”

About This Game

Embark on a Steampunk Odyssey in STEAM TRIGGER.

Welcome to Veridium, the sprawling metropolis where the clattering gears of industrial progress harmonize with the elegance of Victorian aesthetics. Immerse yourself in a grand steampunk event, the annual Clockwork Gala, a dazzling display of mechanical marvels that draws attendees worldwide. At the heart of this spectacle stands Eva, a brilliant inventor and daring adventurer with a fiery spirit.

As the Clockwork Gala unfolds, Eva unveils her magnum opus: the Steam Trigger, a colossal mechanical suit powered by the mysterious energy source Aetherium. Little do the attendees know that a Clockwork Rebellion is about to unfold, orchestrated by the enigmatic Lord Malachi and his rogue group of inventors. Their nefarious intent is to seize control of Veridium's Aetherium deposits, plunging the city into chaos.

With each boss and obstacle Eva faces, she unravels Lord Malachi's machinations. In an epic battle of wits, strategy, and mechanical prowess, Eva points her steam trigger at the monstrous creature to face the horrors of a machine that threatens to tear Veridium apart.
