Coming Soon To Early Access

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We want this game to feel complete, polished, and truly satisfying in every aspect and we believe the best way to achieve that is by building it together with the community. Early Access allows us to openly share our progress, gather feedback, and shape the game’s direction alongside players. Since this project has strong potential to grow with new features, improved mechanics, and better presentation, we see Early Access as the ideal environment to bring out that potential with your help.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan to stay in Early Access for several months, with a target window around May-June for leaving Early Access. However, this timeline may change depending on community feedback, development needs, and the amount of content we aim to add.”

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

“We plan to expand the game significantly as development progresses. Our goals include:
- Adding new levels and content
- Improving gameplay dynamics and progression
- Enhancing the overall presentation and user experience
- Introducing new features based on community feedback
While we cannot promise specific features or timelines, our intention is to deliver a more complete, polished, and content-rich version at full release”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version will include the Explore Mode, which will be available from day one. This mode will receive frequent updates and rapid improvements throughout development. As Early Access progresses, an additional new game mode will also be introduced. Some features, levels, and visual elements will still be in development, and players may encounter bugs or placeholder assets as we continue to expand and refine the game.”

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

“We plan to offer the game at a more accessible price during Early Access. As we add new content and features, the price will increase when the full version is released. This approach allows early supporters to enjoy a more advantageous price”

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

“We plan to involve the community through active feedback channels. Player input will be reviewed regularly and used to guide new features, balance adjustments, and overall development priorities. A built‑in feedback system will also be added to the game in the near future. Our goal is to shape the game together with the players.”

About This Game

🎵 Haydn in Plain Sight – Bring the Music Bach to the World!

In a world where the sun is kept alive by a colossal mechanical metronome, disaster strikes: the machine has run out of songs. Humanity, having relied on flawless but soulless music machines for generations, has forgotten how to create real music.

Step into the shoes of Ky and Kaptan, two orchestra conductors traveling through time to rediscover the true meaning of music. Haydn in Plain Sight is a relaxing, story-rich hidden object adventure where history, emotion, and cozy puzzles intertwine.
