What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“My game development process has always relied on iterative fine-tuning based on player feedback. The game's development is now in a stage where this feedback is invaluable.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Definitely more than six months, hopefully less than a year. I'm a solo hobbyist developer with limited time to work on this, so it will take time.”

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

“I'm planning to add more game content and variation, including more enemy types, more weapon modifiers, and more device drop pods.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game is playable with all major gameplay mechanics implemented but with only a small amount of different items (enemies, weapon modifiers, devices).”

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

“A minor price increase is possible when leaving Early Access.”

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

“I'm hoping to receive new ideas for game items and feedback on how to improve and balance the existing content. Your feedback will help guide further development and your ideas might be realized in the coming updates.

You can leave feedback here on Steam discussions/reviews or contact me on social media or via email (see my website for all options).”
