Why Early Access?

“As a small team, building a game that features solo, local co-op, and online play is incredibly challenging. Early access provides a great opportunity to get the game in front of an active audience to help us fine tune and shape the game's balance and content, while also making sure that network play is as smooth and robust as possible. We are now at the point where we need to expand on this foundation with more variety, overall polish, and content across all aspects of the game, including levels, enemies, weapons, and customization.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The game will remain in Early Access until we feel it’s the polished, and fully-featured game that both ourselves, and players are happy with.”

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

“The full version will have a much wider variety of weapons, enemies, upgradable abilities, traps, and unlockable characters. We’re aiming to have 5 distinct zones, each with their own secret areas and bosses.

The full version will also have standard steam features like achievements, cloud saves, and keyboard/controller remapping.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current early access version is fully playable for 1-4 players, both locally and online. There are 4 playable characters, 3 WIP zones with basic boss fight and NPC groundwork. There is also a functioning HUB world in which levels can be selected and unlocked, and relic abilities can be equipped and upgraded.”

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

“We plan to have the same fixed price for both early access and full release so that all players get the same value whether they adopt early or wait for final release.”

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

“We’ll be actively following the steam forums and email feedback to collectively help us balance every aspect of the game. The community will also play a hugely important role in helping us create fully featured and stable network play across all supported platforms.”
