Varför Early Access?

“The game is currently Early Access because of a few reasons. First of all it lacks multiplayer support which is going to be a huge part of the finished game. Secondly, I plan on polishing out many aspects of the game before release including sound design, visuals, and balance. I also have a few gamemodes that will be released before the game is out of early access. I'll need a lot of help and feedback on any bug or balance issues people run into.
I plan on gradually releasing all of the polish and bug fixes as I implement other features. There will likely be several updates devoted to new gamemodes. I have several that were working at one point, but because of big changes to how the game works, are no longer working. I also have a gamemode in the works targeted towards competitive play which will address a few of the underlying balance issues that Hock has. As for multiplayer, once I get the servers up I'll need a lot of help from the community in order to iron everything out and create a seamless multiplayer experience. ”
