What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We are launching in Early Access to gather real player feedback while we build the full game. The current version includes one level focused on testing core gameplay, mechanics, and performance. We are looking for feedback on controls, difficulty, pacing, and overall feel. Your input will directly shape future levels, features, and improvements.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect the game to be in Early Access for approximately 1 year. This timeline allows us to add content, refine gameplay, and improve performance based on player feedback. We will adjust if needed to ensure the final version meets our quality standards”

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

“We plan to continue expanding the game by adding new worlds, enemies, challenges, and story elements as development progresses. The goal is to build a complete experience that grows over time, with each update adding more depth to Billy’s journey.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version includes the first level with fully playable core mechanics. The focus is on movement, combat, and overall gameplay feel. We are actively improving performance, fixing issues, and adjusting balance based on player feedback”

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

“Yes. The game will be offered at a lower price during Early Access to reward early supporters. The price will increase by $10 when the full version is released as more content and features are added.”

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

“We plan to involve the community through live events like PAX and other gaming shows, where players can try the game and share feedback in person. You can also share feedback online through our website and community channels. Your input will help guide updates, improve gameplay, and shape future content as development continues.”
