Why Early Access?

“Scared by Squares is built around atmosphere, puzzle clarity, pacing, and comfort in both standard and VR play. Early Access lets us develop the game alongside players, use feedback to refine interactions and difficulty, and decide which parts of The Cube need the most attention as the experience expands.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect Scared by Squares to remain in Early Access for approximately 12 months. This estimate may change depending on development progress and community feedback.”

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

“We plan to expand The Cube with additional floors, rooms, puzzles, anomalies, story elements, and multiplayer features. We also plan to improve performance, VR interaction and comfort, balance, presentation, and overall polish based on Early Access feedback. These plans may evolve during development.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version is playable in standard and VR modes and includes exploration, puzzle solving, platforming challenges, anomaly hunting, and the currently available areas of The Cube. Core progression is functional, but content, balance, performance, VR controller support, and polish are still being developed. Players may encounter bugs or unfinished elements.”

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

“The current Early Access price reflects the current amount of content. We may increase the price as substantial new content and features are added, and any changes will be announced in advance.”

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

“We plan to use Steam discussions, reviews, and bug reports to collect feedback on puzzle clarity, difficulty, comfort, performance, controls, and requested features. We will use that feedback to prioritize fixes and updates and will share development progress through Steam announcements.”
