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

“The full version is planned to include more customization options for each dogs, additional levels, and more spells! We would also like more player feedback on each spells and make all of them viable and fun.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Wiz-herd's core gameplay loop is complete, and we have a full set of spells and maps for players to play. There are 5 game modes for players to enjoy and 9 spells to choose from.”

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

“Nope! Wiz-herd will stay 100% free to play.”

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