¿Por qué Acceso anticipado?

“BUMP is a highly technical, physics-based arena shooter. Because the gameplay relies on momentum, specific movement tech (like the DBT combo), and 'emergent' physics interactions, we cannot balance it in a vacuum.

The core game is polished and the dedicated servers are live. We are using Early Access to gather data from a real competitive population. We need you to find the broken spots, the overpowered tech, and the meta strategies so we can refine the balance for the full 1.0 release.”

¿Cuánto tiempo va a estar este juego en Acceso anticipado aproximadamente?

“We plan to remain in Early Access for approximately 6 to 12 months. This gives us time to iterate on the meta, release seasonal content, and ensure the competitive ranking system is flawless. However, we will not leave Early Access until the community agrees the game is balanced.”

¿Qué tan diferente será la versión completa de la versión de Acceso anticipado?

“The full version will be a content expansion of the current foundation. We plan to add:

- Ranked Mode: We plan to implement a formal competitive ladder with seasonal rewards.
- Ability Evolution: We intend to introduce deep loadout customization. Our plan is to allow players to pick two unique spells before the match and evolve them through skill trees between rounds, ensuring no two matches play out the same way.
- Arena Expansion: We plan to release new, high-verticality maps on a regular cadence, bringing fresh hazards and vertical layouts to master.
- New Modes: We aim to expand the chaos with Team Deathmatch and objective-based modes designed to force aggressive spacing and vertical dominance.
- Visual Dominance: We plan to add more skins, more trails, and more ways to flex on your opponents.”

¿Cuál es el estado actual de la versión de Acceso anticipado?

“The following features represent the state of the game as of the Major Update on December 19, 2025:

Dedicated Servers: As of Dec 19, we use high-performance dedicated servers for fair hit registration. No P2P hosting.

The Arena: We are launching this update with one highly polished vertical map to focus the player base and establish the movement meta. Additional maps will be added in upcoming updates.

Complete Movement Tech: The physics engine is fully unlocked.

DBT Combo: The 'Dash-Bullet-Time' velocity locking tech is implemented.

Traversal: Omnidirectional wall running, air-stalling, and dashes are fully functional.

Combat Loop: The core 'Void Kill' ruleset is complete.

Shooting: Explosive rounds designed for knockback and trajectory control.

Melee: High-impact close-range strikes for maximum displacement.

Bullet Time: Gravity dampeners allow for precise air-stalling and aiming.

Visual Dominance: Character Customization (Armor, Weapons, Skins) is available to personalize your runner.”

¿El precio del juego será diferente durante y después del Acceso anticipado?

“No. BUMP is Free-to-Play and we plan for it to remain Free-to-Play. We want the largest possible player base for instant matchmaking and maximum competition.”

¿Cómo tienes planeado involucrar a la comunidad en tu proceso de desarrollo?

“We are building a competitive sport, not just a game. We will be active on our official Discord and Steam Forums to discuss:

[] Meta Balancing: Which movement tech is too strong? Is the knockback fair? We need high-skill players to stress-test the physics. [] Map Exploits: The verticality of BUMP means there are hiding spots we haven't found yet. Help us identify unintended safe zones.
• Bug Hunting: Help us refine the dedicated server performance and hit registration.

If you find a way to break the game's physics, don't just tell us, show us on Discord, and help us turn it into a feature or fix it.”
