Why Early Access?

“We’ve chosen to release Lustful Apocalypse in Early Access for a few key reasons that we believe will benefit both the game and the community.

1. Player Feedback

Lustful Apocalypse is an ambitious and complex game, blending NSFW content with rich narrative and immersive gameplay. Early Access allows us to engage with our player base early on, collecting valuable feedback on mechanics, storylines, character development, and overall experience. This feedback will help us fine-tune the game, ensuring it meets the expectations of our audience.

2. Content Expansion

Releasing in Early Access gives us the opportunity to roll out new content gradually. We plan to add more environments, characters, quests, and erotic scenes over time, which means that the full game will be much larger than its current version. This staged approach helps keep the experience fresh for returning players and allows us to ensure that each new addition is polished.

3. Balancing and Tuning

Lustful Apocalypse is designed to be engaging with a variety of mechanics—combat, resource management, relationship building, and more. Early Access provides us with a testing ground for these features. We’ll be able to adjust difficulty levels, balance mechanics, and ensure the gameplay is smooth, satisfying, and enjoyable.

4. Transparency and Community Involvement

We want our players to feel involved in the development process. Early Access provides transparency, letting you see how the game evolves over time. We’re committed to engaging with the community, responding to feedback, and delivering a game that lives up to its potential.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We anticipate that Lustful Apocalypse will remain in Early Access for around 6 to 12 months. This timeframe allows us to implement the additional content and features we have planned, as well as to polish the game based on player feedback.

However, this timeline may shift depending on several factors:

Player feedback: If substantial changes or adjustments are required based on community input, we may extend the Early Access period to ensure that we address these thoroughly.
Content updates: We have ambitious plans for adding new environments, characters, storylines, and erotic scenes. We want to make sure each update is polished and enhances the overall experience, which could influence the length of Early Access.
Balancing and testing: As we continue to fine-tune the game’s mechanics and balance its systems, we’ll want to ensure that the final release is a seamless and satisfying experience.

While we’re targeting a 6- to 12-month period, we’ll keep the community updated with our progress and any changes to the timeline. Our priority is to deliver the best version of Lustful Apocalypse possible.”

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

“The full version of Lustful Apocalypse is planned to offer a much more expansive and polished experience compared to the Early Access version. While Early Access focuses on the core gameplay and story foundations, the full release will likely include numerous additions and refinements based on both our vision and player feedback.
Planned Additions:

Expanded Storylines and Environments
The full version is expected to feature more story arcs, missions, and world-building. We aim to introduce new environments for players to explore, filled with additional quests, erotic scenes, and characters. This will create a richer, more immersive experience as the game’s world grows.

New Characters and Relationships
We’re planning to add more characters, each with their own backstories, personalities, and interactions. This will give players a wider range of relationship dynamics to explore, enhancing the depth and variety of NSFW scenes as well as the narrative experience.

More Complex Gameplay Mechanics
While the Early Access version lays the groundwork, the full game is intended to feature more refined mechanics in areas such as combat, resource management, and character interactions. Additional features may be introduced to deepen player engagement and make each decision feel more impactful.

Polished Visuals and Audio
The full version will likely see enhancements in graphics, animations, and sound design. We aim to improve the overall aesthetic, ensuring a more visually and aurally immersive experience, including refining the erotic scenes for higher quality presentation.

Bug Fixes and Optimisation
The Early Access period gives us the opportunity to identify and resolve bugs, as well as optimise the game for better performance. By the time of the full release, we aim to have addressed the majority of issues that players encounter, delivering a smoother and more stable experience.

Additional Erotic Content
One of the key areas we plan to expand is the NSFW content. We aim to include more variety in erotic scenes, with diverse scenarios and interactive elements that cater to different preferences, making the final experience more comprehensive.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current state of the Early Access version of Lustful Apocalypse on Windows includes the following features:

Travel to multiple locations: Players can explore various in-game settings, enhancing the sense of adventure.

Combat mechanics: Engage in battles with monsters featuring win and lose scenarios, each with detailed animations for immersion.

NSFW animations: All current monster types include NSFW animations, adding explicit content for mature players.

Pregnancy and breeding mechanics: A unique feature where players experience pregnancy and breeding interactions, contributing to the game's depth.

Multiple outfits: Customisation options with a variety of outfits for character expression.

Story elements: Some story elements are available, with ongoing development to expand the narrative.

Regular updates: Consistent updates are rolled out to refine gameplay and introduce new content based on player feedback.”

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

“We will try and keep the price the same as is.”

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

“We believe that community involvement is key to shaping Lustful Apocalypse into the best possible experience. That’s why we plan to keep players engaged throughout the Early Access period and beyond. Here’s how we aim to involve the community:
1. Player Feedback and Suggestions

We highly value player feedback and will actively encourage players to share their thoughts, experiences, and suggestions. Whether it's through Steam discussions, social media, or other platforms, we’ll be listening closely to what the community has to say about gameplay mechanics, story progression, erotic content, and overall experience.
2. Regular Updates and Community Polls

We plan to release regular updates that include new content, bug fixes, and improvements based on community input. Alongside these updates, we’ll involve the community in decision-making through polls and surveys. These will allow players to have a say in things like which features or storylines they’d like to see prioritised.
3. Open Dialogue with Developers

We want to maintain open channels of communication with our players. Expect regular developer posts and progress updates, where we’ll share insights into what we’re working on, our development goals, and what’s coming next. This transparency helps keep the community informed while also giving us the opportunity to respond to any questions or concerns players might have.
4. Beta Testing for New Features

Before major updates, we’re considering offering select members of the community the chance to beta test new features or content. This would allow players to get a first look at upcoming additions and provide crucial feedback before a wider release.
5. Community-Driven Content Ideas

We’ll be open to creative suggestions from the community, whether that’s ideas for new characters, storylines, or NSFW scenes. While we can’t promise every idea will make it into the game, we’re eager to see what resonates with players and incorporate the most popular or feasible suggestions into future updates.”
