Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We decided it was time to go into early access because we want to get the game in the hands of players. This allows us to start getting feedback and building the game together with the community.

We have a lot more planned and in the pipeline, but we feel like Early Access is the best step for the game right now. We want to build a solid foundation that both we and the community are happy with before expanding it further. During development its always been motivating to get feedback from our closed playtests and we can't wait to hear the opinions of even more people!”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Our plan is between 1 and 2 years. This will vary based on the amount of iterations and changes that need to be done after the early access release. We've setup goals and plans for what we want to do but priorities can always switch when we hear feedback from the community.”

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

“For the Full Version we plan on including a lot more features and content from what we initially deliver in Early Access, here is a list of features that we have in our pipeline:
  • 3 New & Different Biomes each with unique Enemies, Bosses and Hazards
  • Hundreds of new Upgrades for modules
  • Dozens of new Modules
  • Dozens of new Rigs
  • Local Co-op
  • More Starting Trains
”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“What we've been doing is setting a strong foundation for all of our game systems. This allows us to create content much faster and iterate on existing features and mechanics easier.

Here are some of the things you can except in the Early Access release:
  • First Biome
  • Dozen modules to acquire and upgrade
  • Hundreds of upgrades for your modules
  • Meta Progression
  • Dozens of different enemies to encounter and fight
  • And a lot more...
”

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

“While the game is in early access we don't plan on any price changes.
When the game releases we plan on doing a slight price increase as it will be a full and finished product.”

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

“We have already started building a small community in our Discord server, who have participated in playtests and shared valuable feedback which was incorporated into the game, and we plan on expanding the community further once we launch into Early Access.

We think that the feedback from the community is crucial when building the game and we can't wait to hear your impressions and opinions about any aspect of the game.

In order to keep the community engaged, our plan is to conduct questionnaires with each new update which will allow us to gauge the sentiment of the core community and help us make decisions in our future work.”

About This Game

Apocalypse Express is an action management Roguelike in which the player conducts, upgrades and repairs different parts of the train through endless waves of enemies in a post-apocalyptic setting. Departing the darkness of their lifelong shelter, the player decides to embark on a journey through the wasteland looking to fulfill the dream of seeing the outside world with their own eyes, charting out a map around the few remaining memories of the past world.

Manage the Chaos

Be prepared for some nail-biting tension as you try to keep your train running while balancing putting out fires, collecting resources and dispatching enemies. You won't always be able to take care of every part of the Train so be ready to think fast and smart as things will not go as planned.

Modules

Modules are the foundation of your Build. Fill up your Wagons with various modules each giving you unique abilities. There are Modules for every type of Wastelander. Go full offense by building up an arsenal of cannons, rocket launchers and turrets, obliterating everything in your path. Take the more defensive approach and create an indestructible machine built around disabling enemies, deflecting shots and extinguishing fires, keeping your train healthy and running even through the harshest conditions. Or experiment with other combinations, perhaps go with a speedy train that gets you to your destination faster or even create a completely autonomous system that does all the work for you. Your slots are limited, so choose wisely. 

Upgrades

Once you've assembled your perfect combination of modules it's time to make them shine. Each module can be upgraded in dozens of interesting ways, either by making them more powerful or introducing completely new abilities.

Relics

Relics are the final piece of the puzzle, you can only have a few of them but relics often bring powerful and impactful effects that can be the backbone of some amazing builds! Mix and match them to find the best combination to create the perfect Train.
