What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Our goal with C.A.S.T. is to create an engaging and intense third-person extraction shooter PvE experience. As a two-man development team, Early Access is the ideal platform for us because:

  • It allows us to gather crucial feedback from our community to fine-tune the gameplay mechanics, balance, and overall player experience.
  • Given the complexity of the combat, gear systems, and AI behaviors, we want to ensure these elements are polished and balanced through yours input.
  • We aim to create a game that is both challenging and rewarding, and Early Access enables us to iterate on yours feedback and make necessary adjustments.
  • Regular updates and patches during Early Access will help us gradually build a solid foundation and expand the game’s content based on the community’s desires.

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We anticipate C.A.S.T. will remain in Early Access for approximately 6 to 12 months.”

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

“Many things are planned to be added during the development process, including:

  • New maps.
  • New gear and weapon customization options.
  • New modifiers.
  • New types of enemies.
  • New playable characters.
  • New game modes and objectives.
  • Localization for multiple languages.
  • Improved multiplayer features, global leaderboards, and more.
  • Overall polish.

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current Early Access version of C.A.S.T. includes:

  • 4 maps are available. Each one combines hand-crafted and procedural elements with different weather presets and random anomalies, making each playthrough unique.

  • A store where you can purchase weapons, ammunition, supplies, and more.
  • 4 unique resources you can find when you defeat enemies and look for stashes on the map.
  • 4 unique playable characters.

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

“Yes, we plan to increase the price of C.A.S.T. a little after the Early Access period, as we add more content and features to the game.”

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

“Community feedback is vital to the development of C.A.S.T. We plan to involve the community through:

  • Regular updates and transparent development progress.
  • Actively monitoring and responding to feedback on our Discord server and Steam community forums.
  • Conducting surveys and polls to prioritize features and improvements.
