Tulossa pian Early Accessiin

Pelin kehittäjät julkaisevat sen kehitysvaiheessa ja jatkavat työstämistä pelaajien palautteen pohjalta.

Huomaa: Early Access -pelit ovat keskeneräisiä ja saattavat vielä muuttua. Jos et halua pelata peliä sen tämänhetkisessä tilassa, odota ja tarkista peli myöhemmin uudelleen. Lue lisää

Kehittäjien kertomaa:

Miksi Early Access?

We’re building a tightly tuned roguelite shoot-’em-up with high replayability and long-term progression. Early Access allows us to shape the game alongside players who care about build variety, space action, and meaningful feedback. We want to refine the experience based on real runs—not theoretical spreadsheets.

Miten kauan peli tulee arviolta olemaan Early Access -vaiheessa?

Our goal is to leave Early Access once the game reaches a level of completeness and polish we’re proud of. That could take several months or longer—it depends on how feedback evolves and what players value most. We’ll stay in Early Access as long as it takes to reach that threshold, but not forever.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

We plan to expand the game with additional playable ships, more enemy and boss encounters, new star systems, deeper faction variety, and a broader set of progression upgrades and challenge modes. We also intend to refine visuals, audio, and narrative elements based on community input. The final scope will evolve with player feedback—but please buy the game for what it is today, not what it might become later.

Mikä on Early Access -version tila tällä hetkellä?

At Early Access launch, the game will include:

- 2 or 3 playable ships
- 4 unique environments (planets and star systems)
- 4 bosses
- Dozens of upgradable weapons, implants, and passive systems
- Full roguelite loop with bounty and debt mechanics
- Core systems are playable, stable, and fun—but expect rough edges and ongoing tuning.

Muuttuuko pelin hinta Early Access -vaiheen jälkeen?

We expect the price to increase once the game is fully released, as more content and features are added. Early supporters get access at a lower price as thanks for helping shape the game.

Miten yhteisö otetaan mukaan kehitysprosessiin?

Community feedback is core to our development. We’ll actively monitor Discord, Steam forums, and feedback forms to understand what’s working, what’s not, and where players want the game to go. Balancing, pacing, build variety, and difficulty tuning will all be heavily shaped by the community. We also plan to run occasional test builds and polls as we add new content.

Tietoa pelistä

You're Captain Cole Hunter - broke, hunted, and heavily armed.

In this retro-fueled space roguelite, blast through bullet hell gauntlets, collect enemy cores to upgrade your ship, and repay a galaxy-sized debt to a syndicate that wants your hide more than your money.

The longer you fly, the hotter the chase gets. Make every shot count... or default in flames.

Cole Hunter: Payback is a 2D side-scrolling shoot-’em-up with roguelite structure, high-stakes upgrade loops, and space-opera swagger. You’ll pilot customizable ships across hostile star systems, dodging waves of enemy fire, scrapping for core drops, and cashing in bounties to chip away at your crushing debt to the galaxy’s nastiest creditors.

Featuring tight moment-to-moment gameplay, risk-reward magnetic pickups, and a snarky drone sidekick, Cole Hunter delivers a modern twist on the classics — blending R-Type precision with Enter the Gungeon progression and Firefly-flavored grit.

Every run is a run for your life. And your wallet.


Key Features

  • Shoot. Dodge. Collect. Upgrade.
    Harvest cores from fallen enemies mid-combat to evolve your arsenal. Trade firepower for loot at your own risk.

  • Builds That Beg to Be Broken.
    Equip weapons, drones, and passive implants between runs. Mix and match for power combos—or total disasters.

  • Retro Pixel Art, Modern Execution.
    Hand-crafted visuals inspired by the golden age of shmups, tuned for today’s action junkies and roguelite obsessives.

  • Space Opera With a Snarl.
    Light narrative flavor story beats and banter between Cole and Lucy balance high-stakes action with dark humor and character.

  • Fast Runs, Deep Progression.
    5–10 minute combat loops packed with decisions and rewards. Ideal for one-more-run marathons or bite-sized chaos.
