What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early Access will help shape the final version of the game by letting players influence progression pacing, enemy difficulty, and overall feel. We want to use community feedback to tune systems, modify how upgrades unlock, improve UI, and identify areas where more content or variety would make the experience stronger. ”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan to spend 3-6 months in Early Access. ”

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

“The full version will include refinements and additions based on player feedback. This may involve expanded enemy behaviors, upgrade options, UI elements, and adjustments to progression pacing. We also plan to add small pieces of new content where players identify gaps, such as more bosses and enemy types.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version is fully playable, but several systems, and progression elements are still open to adjustment and expansion based on player feedback.”

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

“We have no plans to change the price for a full release.”

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

“Players can use the in game reporting tool to send feedback directly, as well as share suggestions via the Steam Community Hub.”
