Why Early Access?

“Basefall is a competitive multiplayer strategy game that blends elements of lane-based combat, tactical unit management, and real-time decision making.

We are releasing in Early Access to gather player feedback while continuing to refine gameplay systems, balance units, and expand the overall experience. Community input is especially valuable for competitive games like Basefall, where balance, progression pacing, and match flow benefit greatly from real player data and feedback.

Early Access allows us to improve the game alongside our players and shape its future direction together.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We currently expect Basefall to remain in Early Access for at least 12 months. However, development timelines may change based on community feedback, iteration needs, and overall project scope.

Our focus is on improving the quality and depth of the game rather than committing to a fixed release date.”

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

“The current Early Access version includes the core gameplay experience:
• Multiplayer matches
• Multiple playable units
• Wards and spells
• Upgrade system
• Leveling and unlock progression
• Competitive lane-based gameplay

As development continues, we plan to expand the game with additional units, wards, spells, gameplay modes, progression features, quality-of-life improvements, and overall polish.

We also plan to continue refining balance, visuals, and user experience based on player feedback and live testing.

All future additions are subject to development progress and community input.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Basefall is fully playable in multiplayer and includes:
• A complete match flow from lobby to end-game results
• A roster selection system
• Unlockable units, wards, and spells
• A leveling and progression system
• An in-match upgrade system
• Core balance and gameplay systems

The game is actively being updated and refined. Players may encounter bugs, balance adjustments, and ongoing system improvements as development continues.

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

“Basefall is currently planned to be free to play during Early Access.

At this time, we do not have confirmed plans to change the pricing model. If the monetization structure evolves in the future, it will be clearly communicated to the community in advance.”

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

“We actively gather feedback from players through:
• Community discussions
• Discord
• Playtesting sessions
• Direct player feedback

Balance changes, system adjustments, and feature improvements are heavily influenced by player experience and testing data. We plan to continue working closely with the community throughout Early Access to refine and improve the game.”
