What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early Access allows you to be a part of the development of Heresy. Since Heresy is not like any other game available, I'll be able to greatly benefit from your feedback on current game-play mechanics and future ideas. In return, we'll be able collaborate and create the best game possible.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Should take around 6 months to a year to hit v1.0.”

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

“The full version is expected to have more game play elements compared to the early access version. My goal is to provide a full featured strategy action game with infinite replay value.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Heresy is currently an early beta build. Many features are currently implemented, but there are always improvements and additions that can be made.”

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

“There will be no price change after Early Access.”

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

“The discussion forum is the best place to talk about the current state and future ideas for Heresy. I am only one person, but I'll do my best to engage the community. Constructive criticism is essential for me to make the best possible game I can. I can't promise to implement every idea proposed, but I will consider them.”
