Why Early Access?

“The game is currently in active development, and Early Access allows me to continue improving and expanding it with the help of player feedback. One of my ongoing goals is to replace certain premade assets with more original content to better match the game’s vision and identity.

My long-term objective is to create a genuinely engaging and immersive experience, built around a full campaign rather than a limited set of quests. The plan includes 4–5 unique traders, each with their own extensive questlines, personalities, and lore. Beyond traders, the game will expand to include a wider network of contacts within the zone, with a strong emphasis on storytelling and world-building.

The core experience will revolve around uncovering the mysteries of the zone and working toward escaping it, with a structured campaign lasting approximately 6–10 hours and offering a rich amount of content to explore.

I am committed to continuing development, listening to community feedback, and seeing the project through to completion. For more details on what is currently available, please refer to the "What is the current state of the Early Access version?" section.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Around a year or so probably.”

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

“New models, smoothened mechanics and overall rehaul of the game aswel as my goal which is too build a genuinley fun game with a full campaign, not just a few traders with quests, but 4 or 5 traders each with their own extensive questlines and lore, expanding from traders, to contacts within the zone on a large focus on the story and objective to escape the zone and uncover its secrets extending from the start of the game to a 6-10 hour campaign full of content to explore. ”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version currently includes the core gameplay systems, which are functional but will continue to be expanded and refined over time. At launch, players can expect approximately 2–3 hours of structured missions and main story content. In addition, the raid system allows for ongoing replayability with randomized loot, enabling players to continue playing beyond the main content.

Please note that the current build has significant performance and stability issues. The game may take 1–2 minutes to load on startup, and it is common for the application to become unresponsive during this time. Some features may also cause temporary freezing or crashes when used for the first time, as assets are being loaded.

Players may experience a crash (application not responding) when launching into a raid for the first time each session. After this initial load, gameplay should be more stable until the game is restarted. Optimization is a current development priority, and these issues are actively being worked on.

Regarding additional content, the game includes optional DLC, such as the “Anomalous Starter Pack,” for players who wish to further support development. Items tied to DLC will only appear in the in-game store if the corresponding DLC is owned.

Overall, this Early Access version represents a work in progress, with core systems in place and more content, improvements, and optimizations planned for future updates.”

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

“No, I intend to keep a fair and justifiable price for my project.”

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

“I plan to actively involve the community throughout the development process by listening to player feedback and using it to guide improvements. Community input will play a key role in shaping the game’s direction, from refining existing features to introducing new mechanics and gameplay elements that players genuinely want to see. My goal is to ensure that the experience feels rewarding and worthwhile for everyone who chooses to invest their time and money in the game.
