Why Early Access?

“WATTGAMES was born of an innovative idea to make indoor cycling more fun, and we understand that to create a completely new game with a new concept it is important to keep fine-tuning it based on feedback from our players.

In order to collect feedback on these elements and grow the game into one that everyone can enjoy, we believe that feedback from everyone in the community is necessary.

Therefore, we have decided to release WATTGAMES into Early Access.

Please lend us your support so that we can make WATTGAMES the best it can be.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan to improve the quality of the game by making various improvements throughout Early Access until at least 6 base Missions are complete. We expect this to take at least 6 months.

Depending on the progress of development, we may consider extending Early Access, or if we are satisfied with the state of the game, officially releasing the game.”

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

“The full version will include at least 6 Missions (with a current target of 8) together with more enhanced backend systems such as leaderboards and achievements.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“All core systems including bicycle physics and Strava integration are complete, together with the first 4 Missions.”

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

“The price of the game will increase at or closer to the official release.”

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

“We're asking for your feedback in a variety of places, including the Steam forums, on our Discord and other social networking sites. We plan to integrate and consider new game mechanics from the community and also to shape the vision of the game for the future.”
