Why Early Access?

“I’m launching Noir Lords in Early Access to bring players into the development process early on. Community feedback is incredibly valuable, especially for a card game where balance, variety, and replayability matter. Early Access gives me the chance to test new ideas, improve the experience based on real gameplay, and build a better game with the help of those playing it.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“I plan to keep Noir Lords in Early Access for several months (7-9). There’s no exact timeline, but the goal is to expand the game gradually while ensuring quality and staying responsive to feedback.”

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

“The full version is planned to include:

- A larger variety of cards with new abilities and strategies

- A more enhanced gameplay and UI with more FXs.

- Additional campaign content and story chapters

- More game modes or variations to keep things fresh

- Improved visuals, sound, and overall polish

- Possible localization to reach more players worldwide

My aim is to make Noir Lords deeper and more refined over time while keeping the core gameplay fast and fun.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version is fully playable and stable. It includes:

- 45+ unique cards with a variety of simple effects

- A single-player campaign with a story-driven noir atmosphere

- Core systems like attacking, healing, fortifying, poisoning, and reviving

- Quick match pacing and a distinct visual style

It's a strong foundation, and now I’m focused on adding more content and refining the experience.”

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

“Yes, the price will likely increase after Early Access as I add more features and content. Early Access players will get the full experience at a lower price and help shape the game's development along the way.”

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

“I’ll be paying close attention to player feedback on Steam forums, social media (discord), and any messages I receive. Whether it’s balancing cards, suggesting new features, or reporting bugs—every bit of feedback helps. I want Noir Lords to grow with the community’s input and become something truly special.”
