Why Early Access?

“We are releasing in Early Access because we do not feel the game has enough content yet for a full release. The narrative side of the game also needs more development and a clearer connection between the levels, characters, and the strange world.

Early Access gives us a way to keep improving the game together with the community while the game is still actively in development.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Our current expectation is that Sixth Force will stay in Early Access for around 3 to 6 months.

This may change depending on development progress, player feedback, testing, and the amount of additional content and polish needed before we feel the game is ready for a full release.”

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

“We plan to significantly expand the amount of gameplay beyond the current Early Access version with more content, more polish, and more variety.

The exact scope may change during development as we learn from the community and continue testing the game.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current Early Access version is a playable build with around 1 hour of gameplay.

It includes the core Sixth Force experience: two-player co-op, the energy bond that keeps both players connected, energy whips, swinging, pulling, freezing obstacles, levitating your partner, combat encounters, co-op puzzles on the run, and a candy-themed world with funny enemies and a boss encounter.

The game can be played locally on one shared screen or online through Steam Remote Play Together.

The current version is not the finished full game. Some content, balancing, difficulty tuning, UI, onboarding, technical polish, and quality-of-life improvements are still in development. We believe the Early Access version already shows the core idea of the game, and we want players to join now if they are excited to help us shape it further.”

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

“We plan to gradually raise the price as we add more content, features, and polish during Early Access and toward the full release.”

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

“We plan to involve the community through Steam Discussions, Steam announcements, feedback forms, playtesting, and our Discord server.

We are especially interested in feedback about tutorial clarity, co-op readability, puzzle pacing, difficulty for mixed-skill players, controls, bugs, and which co-op moments feel the most fun or frustrating.”
