What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“The game has been launched in Early Access because while we are satisfied with its current state, we aim to utilize feedback from our users to further develop and enhance the game experience.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The game is expected to remain in Early Access for approximately 6 months. However, this timeline may vary due to the unpredictable nature of game development.”

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

“For the full version, we aim to expand significantly beyond the current version by incorporating a broader array of cases and refining the overarching narrative to offer a more cohesive and intertwined story. Our vision includes enhancing the game's replayability through the introduction of new features, enabling players to approach case-solving in varied environments and through multiple methodologies. This can include, but is not limited to, direct crime scene visits and diverse evidence collection methods. Additionally, we are exploring the potential integration of multiplayer elements and are committed to advancing AI capabilities to enrich the gameplay experience. Please note these aspirations are subject to change as we continue to develop and refine the game's content and features.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version on Steam is in a highly playable state, featuring a complete gameplay loop. Players can engage in multiple cases, with at least 2 to 3 hours of gameplay available.”

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

“While we do not expect a massive increase in price unforeseen development costs and economic variability can make it hard to fully commit to a single price point. We can however commit to the standard prices for comparable titles.”

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

“Involving the community in our development process is central to our vision for this game. We plan to actively engage with our players, using their feedback to continually improve the game. This will not only help us identify and fix issues more efficiently but also enable us to better prioritize new features and adjustments based on what our players value the most. We believe that building this game together with our community will lead to a more enjoyable and well-rounded experience for everyone involved”
