Why Early Access?

“HOLON already delivers a functional, fully playable nested factory experience, but our broader vision for the project is still evolving. We chose Early Access because community feedback is essential for balancing complex automation systems, expanding tech progression, and optimizing engine performance for massive builds. We are committed to active development, regular content updates, and working closely with our players to refine the core tools and see HOLON through to a complete 1.0 release.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan to stay in Early Access for about 12–24 months. That depends on how the game holds up at scale and what players need next. We will not lock a 1.0 date.”

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

“We plan to grow what you can already do: more hub goals and shapes, more machines and belts, deeper nesting, better copy/blueprint tools. We also plan more polish on the tutorial, UI, and QoL. Early Access is the core loop. We plan for 1.0 to be that loop, finished and filled out .”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“You can extract, belt, join, rotate, and fold working lines into nests, then stamp those nests. There is a guided tutorial, a hub with a limited goal set, production stats, and large factories already run. Some late-game content, upgrades, and tools are still missing or rough. Expect bugs, balance changes.”

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

“We dont plan to raise the price as we add content and features.”

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

“Play, break it, and tell us. We watch Steam discussions, and Discord is the fast loop for bugs, factory screenshots, and what to build next. We plan to ship updates from that feedback, and to say what changed in the notes.”
