Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We believe that great games are built alongside their communities. Ballardo blends strategic deck-building with fast-paced billiards action, and we’re excited to shape its future together with our players. Early Access allows us to refine the mechanics, balance the gameplay, and introduce exciting new content based on real feedback. With your help, we can turn Ballardo into something truly special.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We aim to keep Ballardo in Early Access for about 12 months, depending on how quickly we can complete the planned updates and integrate player feedback.”

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

“The full version of Ballardo may include additional content, potential improvements to visuals and audio, and various quality-of-life changes influenced by community feedback, depending on how development evolves and what feels right for the game.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The core gameplay of Ballardo is fully functional, featuring the main game loop, core mechanics, and progression systems. It already offers hours of replayability with unique combos, challenge decks, and exciting runs. However, visuals are still being improved, and some content (like additional decks and customization) is scheduled for upcoming updates.”

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

“Yes, we plan to increase the price once Ballardo leaves Early Access. This reflects the added content and polish in the full release.”

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

“We’re actively listening! Join us on Steam forums or Discord to share your ideas, report bugs, or discuss balance. We read every message and many of our updates are shaped by your suggestions. Help us make Ballardo the best it can be.”
