What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We’re launching Soulkin in Early Access to involve our community in shaping the game’s development. As a small indie team at Tambu Games, your feedback is invaluable in helping us refine gameplay mechanics, balance difficulty, and expand the world of Ankiril. By releasing in Early Access, we can work together to create a more polished and enjoyable experience. Your support and insights will make a significant difference as we bring Soulkin to life.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We foresee Soulkin being in Early Access for approximately 9 to 12 months. We plan to release additional content in region-based blocks during this period. The initial Early Access release will include the first two regions, with more areas added as development progresses. Along with new regions, we will introduce new mechanics and continuously improve the existing content based on community feedback. This approach allows us to expand the game world and storyline while refining gameplay, ensuring a rich, immersive experience. Your input will be crucial in helping us create the best possible version of Soulkin for the full release.”

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

“The full version of Soulkin will expand on the foundation introduced in Early Access significantly. Here’s what we are planning:

  • Additional Regions: We aim to extend the game content by adding more regions, including new environments, new Soulkin, additional abilities, and new elements, adding greater depth and variety to the game.

  • Expanded Mechanics: We plan to expand the gameplay mechanics to deepen the strategic elements and enhance player engagement.

  • Extended Soulkin Roster: We aim to add more Soulkin to collect, each with distinct abilities and attributes, adding greater variety and tactical options.

  • Enhanced Visuals and Art: We plan to improve the game’s charming art style, adding more detailed environments and character designs.

  • Polished Gameplay: Ongoing improvements to balance, performance, and overall gameplay experience based on player feedback.

  • Additional Features: Lastly, we desire to add more core content such as artifacts, events, and boss battles to enrich the gameplay.

Our end goal is to deliver a richer and more polished experience that fully realizes the vision of Soulkin. Your feedback during Early Access will be invaluable in helping us achieve this.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version of Soulkin provides a substantial introduction to the game’s mechanics and world. Here’s what’s included:

  • Regions: The game currently features two main regions, each one providing distinctive location.

  • Elements and Soulkin: Players can utilize 4 different elements, each with 8 unique Soulkin to recruit, for a roster of 32 Soulkin in total.

  • Boss Battles: The game includes 6 challenging boss battles, providing a glimpse into the tough encounters ahead.

  • Core Tactical Gameplay: Engage in strategic, turn-based battles on a hexagonal grid, utilizing the unique abilities of your Soulkin.

  • Artifacts: Discover and use 20 different artifacts to enhance your gameplay experience.

While the core gameplay and mechanics are well-established, we are continuously working on polishing and expanding the content. Player feedback during Early Access will be crucial in guiding our improvements and additions.”

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

“We plan to gradually raise the price as we ship new content and features, so we recommend buying early.”

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

“Community involvement is vital to the development of Soulkin, and we have several plans to ensure your feedback helps shape the game:

  • Feedback Channels: We encourage players to share their thoughts and suggestions on our Discord server and Steam Community forums. This direct feedback will help us understand what works well and what needs improvement.

  • Regular Updates: We will provide regular updates and patch notes detailing our progress, changes, and any new content based on community feedback.

  • Surveys and Polls: Periodically, we will conduct surveys and polls to gather player opinions on specific aspects of the game, helping us prioritize features and improvements that you want to see.

  • Bug Reporting: Players can report bugs and issues through our designated channels, ensuring we can quickly resolve any problems.

  • Beta Testing: Before major updates, we will invite community members to participate in beta tests, giving them an early look at new content and features while allowing us to gather valuable feedback.

  • Developer Q&A Sessions: We will host Q&A sessions where the development team will answer community questions and discuss upcoming features and updates.

Most of these activities will be held on our Discord server, so join us there to be an integral part of the development journey. By actively engaging with the community, we aim to create a collaborative development process that ensures Soulkin becomes the best game it can be. Your input is invaluable to us, and we look forward to building this game together.”
