Why Early Access?

“Echoes of Extinction is launching in Early Access to create a collaborative development process with our player community. This stage allows us to gather feedback and insights directly from players, ensuring that the game evolves in line with their expectations and desires. As a game with complex dynamics between human and dinosaur characters, community input is invaluable for balancing, enhancing gameplay mechanics, and refining features. Early Access provides the opportunity to expand and polish the game, ensuring a more robust, enjoyable final product. We're committed to an open development journey, where player experiences and suggestions play a vital role in shaping the game's future.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We understand that game development timelines can be fluid, but we aim to refine Echoes of Extinction to meet our standards within a reasonable timeframe. While it's challenging to provide an exact duration, we anticipate the game remaining in Early Access for several years, depending on the feedback and development progress.”

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

“The full release of Echoes of Extinction is planned to offer an enriched and expansive experience compared to Early Access. Key enhancements may include the addition of new species and tribes, potentially expanding the scope of player interactions and strategies. The game's world would aim to become more dynamic, featuring evolving ecosystems and more sophisticated AI behaviors, possibly intensifying survival challenges. We aim to explore deeper customization options for both human and dinosaur players, providing a more personalized experience. Our focus is expected to be on refining combat, crafting, and survival systems based on player feedback, with the goal of ensuring a seamless and immersive gameplay experience.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Although the game is not currently available to the everybody, the Early Access version of "Echoes of Extinction" offers a foundational experience with playable dinosaurs like Eocarcharia and upcoming additions like Ouranosaurus. Players can hunt AI like Dryosaurus or wondering Tribals and engage in basic combat mechanics for both dinosaurs and tribal characters. The game features hunger, thirst and bleeding mechanics, along with stamina management. Tribal adventurers can wield basic combat gear, explore immersive environments with day-night cycles, weather changes, and lush rainforests, and embark on basic quests for added adventure.”

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

“While we're still finalizing our pricing strategy, we want to be transparent about our intentions. As we continue to add new content and features during Early Access, we plan to gradually raise the price to reflect the value and depth of the experience.”

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

“For Echoes of Extinction, community involvement is pivotal. We plan to engage our players actively in shaping the game's evolution. This includes open forums for feedback on platforms such as Discord and Twitter. Players can suggest and discuss new features, improvements, and content. We'll also host creative contests, encouraging the community to contribute ideas for game elements like environments, creatures, and lore. Regular updates will be shared with the community, and their responses will guide further development. Additionally, special in-game events and initiatives will be organized to raise awareness about wildlife conservation, fostering a deeper connection between our game's theme and real-world environmental efforts.”
