Why Early Access?

“A solo developer with a big ambition is developing Vengeance. Early Access allows me to shape the game alongside the community, while continuing development at a sustainable pace.

By releasing early, I can gather valuable feedback, test core mechanics, and gradually expand the game's content and polish based on player input — all without needing a large team or budget.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“There’s no fixed date yet. Development is progressing steadily, but as a solo developer, I’ll be expanding the game gradually over time until 2027.

Early Access will continue until I feel the game delivers a complete and polished experience — this depends on both time and available resources.”

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

“The full version is planned to offer more polished gameplay, additional enemy types, improved visual effects, and enhanced performance.

Beyond that, we're aiming to expand the core of the game in meaningful ways. This includes a more complex and rewarding inventory system with a wider variety of items, new enemy types with distinct behaviors, and additional levels with unique environments and escalating challenges.

We're also working on introducing more playable characters, each with their own starting stats and special traits — encouraging different playstyles and strategies. Expect more epic boss fights with multi-phase mechanics, along with new game modes, advanced difficulty settings, and a deeper progression system to keep players engaged across multiple runs.

All of these features will be shaped by community feedback during Early Access. Our goal is to build a refined, content-rich experience that evolves without compromising the tight, skill-based gameplay loop at the heart of Vengeance.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The core gameplay loop is fully functional: players can enter the arena, fight waves of enemies, and test their reflexes in intense bullet hell scenarios.

Core systems — including responsive movement, enemy AI, procedural spawning, item-based stat bonuses, and survival mechanics — are already in place. The current version features one complete level, two handcrafted boss fights, and over 10 unique enemy types, each with their own behaviors and attack patterns.

While visuals and content are still in an early state, the game already offers a challenging and replayable combat experience. Visual effects, animations, sound design, and overall variety will continue to improve throughout development.

This is a solid and expandable foundation designed to grow — not just with more levels, enemies, items, and characters, but also through continuous iteration based on player feedback and gameplay data gathered during Early Access.”

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

“No. The game will be free in every country. ”

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

“We plan to involve the community through active feedback via our Discord server and social media channels. Players will be able to share their ideas, report bugs, vote on upcoming features, and even participate in design polls. We believe the best games are built together with the people who play them, and we’re committed to listening closely throughout early access and beyond.”
