What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early Access provides us with a unique opportunity to involve our community in the development process from the very beginning. By releasing the game in Early Access, we can gather valuable feedback, suggestions, and bug reports directly from players, allowing us to shape the game in accordance with their preferences and expectations. This collaborative approach not only helps us identify areas for improvement but also fosters a sense of ownership and investment among our player base. Additionally, Early Access enables us to iterate rapidly, test new features, and refine gameplay mechanics in real-time, resulting in a more polished and enjoyable final product. We believe that by embracing Early Access, we can create a game that truly resonates with our audience and delivers an exceptional gaming experience for years to come. Thank you for joining us on this exciting journey!”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“With the game currently around 5% complete, our target is to deliver the full release by the summer of 2027. Please understand that development timelines can fluctuate due to factors like community feedback, technical hurdles, and the integration of new features. We're fully committed to delivering a polished and immersive experience, and we appreciate your patience and support as we work towards the final release. Thank you for being part of this journey with us!”

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

“The Early Access version of our game lays a robust foundation, featuring essential gameplay mechanics, a selection of diverse levels, and an assortment of characters each with unique abilities. This initial release allows players to experience the core of what we aim to achieve, providing a compelling glimpse into the universe we're building.

As the game is still in development, players should be aware that the Early Access version represents a work-in-progress. We plan to expand significantly on the existing framework with more levels, enhanced gameplay features, and additional character options. Each update aims to refine core mechanics and integrate player feedback to improve the overall experience.

In our journey to the full release, we anticipate enriching the game's world with richer narratives and a broader array of content, ensuring each aspect of the game receives the polish and attention it deserves. We are committed to transparency and will keep our community informed through regular updates and development logs.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Our Early Access version provides a solid foundation for the game, featuring core gameplay mechanics, several levels, and a variety of playable characters. While it offers a compelling experience, it's important to note that some features and content planned for the full release are still in development. For a detailed overview of the current state, please refer to the "About This" section.”

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

“During the Early Access phase, the price of the game may undergo slight adjustments with each update as we introduce new features and content. However, once the game reaches its full release, the price will be set and will remain consistent thereafter. This allows us to appropriately reflect the evolving value of the game during its development phase while ensuring transparency and consistency for our players once the game is officially launched.”

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

“Community involvement is at the heart of our development strategy. We're committed to actively engaging with our players through various channels, including forums, social media, and in-game feedback systems. Your input will shape the direction of the game, influencing everything from new features to balance adjustments. Regular updates, developer insights, and open communication channels will ensure that your voices are heard and valued throughout the development journey.”
