Proč předběžný přístup?

„We’re launching A.V.E.N.A. in Early Access because we’re a small team, and player feedback is an important part of how we want to shape the game.

Early Access gives us the opportunity to test the core gameplay loop with a real community, improve balance and progression, and better understand what players enjoy most. It also helps us identify which features and content should be prioritized as development continues.

We want the community to be part of that process. Your feedback will help us refine A.V.E.N.A. throughout development and make the game stronger over time.“

Přibližně jak dlouho bude tato hra v předběžném přístupu?

„It’s too early for us to give an exact timeline.

Our current estimate is around one year in Early Access, but that may change depending on development progress and player feedback. We’d rather take the time needed to improve the game properly than commit to a date we may not be able to meet.

Our priority is to keep improving A.V.E.N.A. at a steady pace while building toward a stronger full release.“

Jak se bude plná verze lišit od předběžného přístupu?

„Our current plan for the full version is to offer a larger, more polished, and more feature-rich experience than the initial Early Access release.

During Early Access, we plan to expand the game with more content, including additional enemies, weapons, drone parts, progression options, and more worldbuilding, lore, and narrative elements. We also plan to develop the game beyond its initial single-player foundation, with co-op multiplayer planned for a later stage of development.

From a lore perspective, Early Access represents the pilot training phase of the Exploration Corps program, with deployments taking place in simulated environments based on real portal-side data. The full version is planned to move beyond training and into real exploration operations and live missions beyond the Primal Portal.

As development continues, we’ll also keep improving stability, balance, performance, and overall game feel based on player feedback.“

V jaké fázi vývoje se hra nachází?

„The current Early Access version includes a single-player experience built around the core gameplay loop of A.V.E.N.A.

Players can access a hub area and one playable mission zone featuring roguelite-style randomization, run-based upgrades, and repeatable deployments. The current build includes a small selection of drone parts available from the start, as well as a limited roster of approximately 4–5 enemy types with relatively simple behaviors.

From a narrative perspective, Early Access begins during the training phase of the Exploration Corps program, where corporations are searching for and evaluating new drone pilots.“

Změní se cena hry po skončení předběžného přístupu?

„Yes.

Our current plan is to gradually increase the price as the game grows during Early Access and major updates add more content and features.“

Jak plánujete zapojit komunitu do vývoje této hry?

„We plan to involve the community primarily through Steam and Discord.

We want to gather feedback from players as they spend time with the game, and use that feedback to help guide balancing, prioritization, and future improvements. We’ll be paying close attention to community discussions, bug reports, and general reactions to the game as it evolves.

A.V.E.N.A. is being built by a small team, and community feedback will play an important role in helping us decide what to improve, expand, and refine throughout Early Access.“
