Coming Soon To Early Access

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

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early Access is being adopted to involve the community in the development process. Feedback is considered essential to ensure the best possible experience, allowing gameplay to be balanced and new features to be prioritized based on player input.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The game is expected to remain in Early Access for a period of nine months to one year.”

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

“The Early Access version includes the starting area and three fully playable zones. The full version is expected to feature an additional three or four zones.

Furthermore, a custom editor is planned to be developed, allowing players to create their own adventures within the game mechanics. The implementation of this feature will depend on community demand and would likely be included as a free post-launch update.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current version is fully playable across the three included zones, offering approximately 20 to 30 hours of gameplay. All core mechanics, progression systems, and features listed in the 'About This Game' section are already fully implemented. The experience is stable and provides a complete gameplay loop, though some minor bugs may be encountered during this stage of development.”

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

“A moderate price increase is expected upon the release of the full version as more content and features are added. However, the price will remain affordable and will only reflect the expanded scope of the game.”

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

“Feedback is primarily collected through the Steam community forums and the official Discord server. This collaborative approach was successfully implemented during the demo phase, where the majority of player suggestions were incorporated into the current Early Access version.”

About This Game

Loopbound is a narrative incremental game where you play as a traveller trapped in a time loop. Each cycle brings you a little closer to unravelling the mystery of your existence as you explore different eras and dimensions and make choices that shape your path.

In each cycle you gather resources, face decay and survival, and unlock new actions and worlds. What you achieve in one cycle carries over to the next, so each run takes you further. The story unfolds through the places you visit and the events you encounter along the way.

Key features:

  • Loops with persistent progression: Die, respawn, and try again; permanent upgrades and unlocked automation carry over between cycles.

  • Survival and decay: Manage hunger, poison, and resources; time and your actions affect your condition and your options.

  • Multiple worlds: Journey through different worlds, each with its own rules and possibilities.

  • Skill system: Level up skills that speed up actions and unlock new options.

  • Automation: After repeating tasks manually, you can automate them to progress while you plan your next move.

  • Integrated narrative: The story is built from world states, events, and the choices you make in each loop.

  • Cloud save: Your save syncs with Steam Cloud so you can continue on another device.

If you like incrementals with story and a touch of survival, Loopbound invites you to live the loop again and again until you discover what lies behind it.
