What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“I chose Early Access to involve the community in shaping the game while it is still evolving.
The core gameplay is already implemented, and the goal is to expand content, improve balance, and refine the overall experience based on player feedback.

Early Access allows us to test ideas, adjust difficulty, and focus development on what players enjoy the most.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“I expect the game to remain in Early Access for approximately 9 to 12 months, depending on development progress and community feedback.”

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

“The full version is planned to include additional content and improvements such as:

New enemy types
Additional structures and upgrades
Points of interest over the map
Expanded crafting options
Improved balance and progression

These features will be developed and adjusted based on community feedback during Early Access.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current version includes the full core gameplay experience:

Resource gathering and exploration
Crafting system and equipment progression
Base building and defensive structures
Player-controlled wave system
Increasing difficulty mechanics
Online co-op mode

Players can already experience the main gameplay loop with several hours of content available.”

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

“The full release is expected to have a higher price than the Early Access version, as a way to reward early supporters.”

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

“Players can share feedback, report issues, and suggest ideas through:

Steam Community Hub and Discussions
Discord
Email

Community feedback will play an important role in shaping future updates and improvements.”

Explore, gather resources, unlock new recipes, craft gear, build your base and defenses, and ignite the fire when you're ready.
