Why Early Access?

“The reason why I chose Early Access for this game is because I felt as though it needed a community to help shape it as development continues. Not to say that everyone gets to dictate every content or step of the way, but providing constructive feedback will help me understand what it is exactly that will make the game more enjoyable for those who also love ARPGs.

The development of the game is almost a daily process on my end - be it two hours a day or up to 6 (if I get lucky on the weekends). And all the while that is going on, I will also be heavily involved in the community via Discord and Steam.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“I want to say somewhere within the range of 4 years, but the reason why I can't be specific is because there might be more people joining in to help reach that goal a lot sooner as time goes by.”

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

“Here's what I have planned (but not definite):
1. New character models (players, enemies, bosses (maybe weapons too))
2. A more user-friendly UI and overall QoL
3. Character skills will be reworked to better fit the vision of the game
4. Dungeon redesign to also fit into that vision for each "biome"
5. While traps are present, those will also be reworked
6. Voice acting for both characters and NPCs
7. More in-depth lore and story found by means of questing, interacting with NPCs, and the characters themselves.
8. The "main" Bohsta castle map will be completed and accessed by the players to fully explore and fight their way through to the final boss.

As time goes by, the priorities might change but the community feedback will always remain present as to what needs to be fixed or developed.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current state as of now would be considered "pre-alpha" at best, or even a "concept" to interact with. The basics or foundations of the game are there but requires a lot of polishing, but you can read more about the current state of the game in the "About this game" description.”

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

“There is that possibility of the price going up based on the amount - and quality of the content after Early Access.”

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

“I have a Discord channel that the community can be a part of and will have access to my ongoing involvement in the process of the game and its updates. I would like to say that the updates will be bi-weekly, but realistically every 3 weeks to a month. Also, any updates that I provide there will also be displayed within a post in the Discussion area of the Steam store page.”
