What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We believe engaging with our community is essential to develop 'Undead Onslaught' to its fullest potential. Early Access provides a platform to incorporate player feedback into ongoing development, allowing us to refine gameplay mechanics, enhance features, and potentially adjust the game’s direction based on what players find most enjoyable.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“While we hope to move from Early Access to full release within about a year, this timeline may adjust as we take the time necessary to integrate feedback and achieve our quality standards.”

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

“Our goal for the full version is to build on the Early Access foundations with additional content and features that enhance the gameplay experience. This includes more classes, a deeper narrative, and refined systems. However, these plans are subject to change based on community input and development insights as we progress.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version of 'Undead Onslaught' includes several unique classes, diverse environments, and a variety of enemies. Players can explore the foundational 'Hero-Slayer' and 'Onslaught' systems, with the initial content providing approximately 5-7 hours of gameplay, which varies based on player strategy and the random elements within the game.”

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

“The game is offered at a reduced price during Early Access to reflect the current content. As we add more features and content, we plan to gradually increase the price, aligning it with the expanding scope of the game.”

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

“We are committed to transparent development, with regular updates and active engagement through the Steam forums and our Discord server. Community feedback will be sought via surveys and discussions, which may influence the game's development path. We're excited to see how player input could shape 'Undead Onslaught's' evolution.”

In Undead Onslaught, experience a unique blend of high-octane bullet-hell action combined with the strategic depth of classic RPGs. Each choice and battle shapes your path through a world filled with formidable foes and breathtaking challenges. Will you master forbidden magic, wield legendary weapons, or lead an army of darkness?
