Miksi Early Access?

We believe the core of New Heaven is already fun and playable, but there are still big features and content we want to add before calling it “complete.” Early Access allows us to share the game now so players can enjoy it while also helping guide its development. Our main goals are to refine gameplay balance, introduce multiplayer, expand the variety of weapons and maps, and add progression systems such as levels and classes. By releasing in Early Access, we can get valuable feedback on what works, what needs improvement, and which features players are most excited about. This helps us shape the final version into the best experience possible, while being transparent about our progress along the way.

Miten kauan peli tulee arviolta olemaan Early Access -vaiheessa?

We expect the game to remain in Early Access for about a year to a year and a half. Our goal is to use that time to expand on content, refine gameplay systems, and introduce new features while listening closely to community feedback. Depending on how development progresses, it could be a little shorter or longer, but that’s the general timeline we’re aiming for.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

The full version will build on the strong foundation of Early Access. We plan to add multiplayer support, more weapons, new maps, and additional enemies to keep gameplay fresh. We’re also looking to implement a level progression system and a class system to give players more depth, variety, and long-term goals. While the Early Access version is already fun and complete enough to play, the full release will expand the scope significantly and provide a more polished, feature-rich experience.

Mikä on Early Access -version tila tällä hetkellä?

Right now, the game is a solid and enjoyable experience on its own. Players can dive in and enjoy a variety of weapons, fight against different types of zombies, and explore multiple maps. The core mechanics are in place, and the game is stable and playable. It’s essentially the “base game,” which we will continue to grow with new features, content, and refinements over time.

Muuttuuko pelin hinta Early Access -vaiheen jälkeen?

We currently plan to keep the price the same after Early Access. Players who support the game early will get the full version at no additional cost. However, if the scope of the game grows significantly beyond our current plans, we may consider adjusting the price later — but our intention is to keep it fair and transparent.

Miten yhteisö otetaan mukaan kehitysprosessiin?

The community will play a key role in how New Heaven grows during Early Access. We’ll be listening to feedback on gameplay balance, new content ideas, and overall direction of development. Suggestions for things like new weapons, enemies, and maps will be taken into account when planning updates. We’ll also be asking players for input on larger features such as the multiplayer and class systems, to make sure they feel rewarding and fun.
For communication, we plan to use the Steam Community Hub as our main channel for feedback and discord as second main channel, updates, and discussions. We’ll also monitor reviews and community posts to see what players are asking for most. Our goal is to build a game alongside the players, making sure their voices are heard and reflected in future updates.
