Why Early Access?

“Early Access allows developers to release a game in episodic installments, giving players the opportunity to experience the story before the full version is complete. This game will be released episode by episode, much like a TV series.

Players won’t need to replay earlier parts of the game (unless they want to)—your choices and progress will carry over between episodes.

The game also features a Movie Mode, where each episode runs for approximately one hour. You can simply continue your story from where you left off, without having to start over every time a new episode arrives.

Early Access also allows us to gather valuable feedback from players, helping us improve and refine the game as development progresses.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The early access phase is planned to last up to a maximum of two years. We estimate the development timeline to be approximately 1.5 years, but to account for unforeseen challenges or delays, we’ve reserved a full two-year window. This buffer ensures we have the flexibility to address any issues that may arise while delivering a high-quality experience through iterative updates.”

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

“The full version of the game will encompass all episodes released during the early access phase, delivering a complete and cohesive experience. This final release will combine every chapter into a single, polished package, incorporating player feedback and refinements to ensure a seamless narrative and gameplay flow.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Prologue is now available as a demo on Steam, giving players a first look at the game’s story, atmosphere, and core mechanics. Episode 1 is almost completed and will continue to expand on the foundations introduced in the Prologue.

The second episode is currently in active development, and the full Steam Early Access launch will begin once Episode 2 is ready.

Releasing the Prologue as a demo allows us to gather valuable player feedback, helping us refine and improve future episodes to deliver the best possible experience when all chapters come together in the final release.”

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

“The full version of the game, which will include all episodes, may be priced slightly higher than the early access version, with an estimated increase of 5-10% at most. This modest price adjustment reflects the complete, polished experience, incorporating all episodes, enhanced features, and refinements based on player feedback from the early access phase. We’re committed to keeping the full release accessible while delivering exceptional value for the comprehensive game.”

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

“The community's feedback is crucial to shaping the game’s development, and we deeply value the input from our players. Based on the insights shared, we’ll be making targeted adjustments to refine gameplay, address concerns, and enhance the overall experience. This ongoing dialogue with our community ensures that each episode, and ultimately the full release, aligns with player expectations and delivers a more polished and engaging game.”
