What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“The vision for the full release includes extensive gameplay and deep systems. By launching in Early Access, we can thoroughly test mechanics, introduce new content, eliminate bugs, and fine-tune balance alongside our community. This allows players to get an early taste of the experience while helping us shape the ultimate version of the game.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“This game is expected to remain in Early Access until mid-to-late 2027 as the game continues to expand. ”

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

“The full release will feature a complete set of achievements, alongside brand-new levels and content not found or available in Early Access. Even after 1.0, we are committed to providing ongoing updates and support to keep expanding the game.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current state has a simple gameplay loop for the three levels already implemented into the game, and has multiplayer functionality, with interactable objects and a working inventory system, lose system, spectating, basic entities, sound and UI. It also has adjustable settings such as resolution, texture quality, graphics quality, etc. Additionally, it includes a singleplayer mode, allowing for gameplay offline. The game is missing core functionality, such as endings, cutscenes, better AI, better gameplay loop, more levels, polish, etc. This is not near the planned release version, as we're currently laying the foundation the game, though, we are constantly adding new content and moving towards getting actual solid gameplay. ”

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

“The game will remain the same price.”

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

“I will be releasing information about future updates as soon as possible and will constantly communicate with the community.”

This game will offer multiples different game modes for different playstyles. The standard mode contains hostile entities and higher difficulty designed to create a survival focused experience. If you want a simpler and friendly, but still eerie difficulty, a "liminal" mode removes entities and threats, allowing the exploration of environments, whether just for the vibes, or the layout of the game.

Explore up to multiple distinct levels. Each inspired by Backrooms lore. Each level will be hand crafted in order to create an immersive and eerie feeling.
