Why Early Access?

“From the earliest stages of developing Shroom and Gloom, we prioritized sharing playable prototypes with our community. The feedback we've received on these early prototypes and our free demo has played a massive role in helping us make this game the best game it can be. Given how much we enjoy developing the game in collaboration with our players, it feels like an obvious choice to do the final stretch of development in Early Access, working closely with our community to make Shroom and Gloom 1.0 something really special.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan to be in Early Access between 12 and 24 months.”

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

“During Early Access, we plan on expanding the game with a new pathway featuring unique explore and combat cards, new character classes, and additional quests and challenges across all pathways.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version of Shroom and Gloom is in a good, playable state, with all key features implemented. The game currently offers two distinct pathways with unique characters, ~300 explore and combat cards per pathway, and multiple quests, synergies and unlocks that secure a highly replayable experience.”

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

“No, we do not currently plan to adjust the price of the game between Early Access and Full Release.”

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

“We've already been working closely with our community and hope that Early Access will provide even more opportunities to continue that. We love chatting to people directly, reading any Steam reviews, and talking about aspects of the game in Steam discussions. We'll also be watching streams and let's plays, getting a clear sense of what is working in Early Access and where we can improve the experience.”
