What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Kingsfall:Chess is launching in Early Access to gather player feedback while continuing to refine gameplay polish, animations, and overall presentation. Early Access allows development to be shaped by the community while expanding features in a thoughtful, controlled way.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The plan is for Kingsfall:Chess to remain in Early Access for approximately 6 to 12 months. This timeframe may adjust based on feedback and feature development progress.”

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

“The full version of Kingsfall:Chess is planned to include additional visual polish, expanded customization options, improved animations and effects, and new features such as online multiplayer and optional cosmetic themes. AI tuning and quality-of-life improvements will continue throughout development.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version of Kingsfall:Chess is fully playable and includes complete chess rules, adjustable AI difficulty, local play, and a polished core experience. Players can expect smooth gameplay, clear visual feedback, and a stable foundation that will continue to improve over time.”

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

“Yes. The price of the game is planned to increase after Early Access as new features, content, and polish are added. Early Access players will receive the game at a lower price as a thank-you for supporting development early.”

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

“Player feedback will play an important role in shaping Kingsfall:Chess. Feedback will be gathered through Steam discussions, direct emails, and playtesting insights. Community suggestions will help guide feature priorities, balance improvements, and polish decisions.”
