Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Rather than waiting until the full version is complete, we want players to experience the core gameplay systems early and provide feedback on the feel and controls. This allows us to make balance adjustments, improve usability, and work with the community to refine the direction of new features—ultimately aiming for a more polished and satisfying game.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The timeline will depend on development progress and community feedback, but our target for completing and releasing the full version is around 2027–2029.”

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

“The current Early Access build offers only the minimum combat systems and Stage 1. For the full version, we are planning to add:
・Multiple new stages
・Additional weapons (both melee and ranged)
・Character progression features such as upgrades and skill systems
・Greater enemy variety, including boss battles
・Additional content and presentation features to deepen the experience
*Please note that these are current plans and may change depending on development circumstances and player feedback.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current build includes:
・Stage 1
・2 weapons (Lethal Blade: melee weapon / Hand Cannon: ranged weapon)
・Core combat system and enemy AI
・Graphics such as characters, maps, and concept art
・BGM and sound effects”

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

“No, we don’t plan to change the price during or after Early Access. A free Demo is also available separately, so feel free to try it if you’re undecided about purchasing at the current price.”

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

“Player feedback is extremely important to this project. We will gather opinions and suggestions through the following:
・Discussions in the Steam Community Hub and forums
・Feedback on patch notes and updates
・Sharing impressions and suggestions via social media or surveys
This feedback will be actively reflected in areas such as weapon balance, prioritization of new features, and difficulty adjustments.”
