Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“I want players to be able to enjoy playing the game while still having the opportunity to give feedback on what they want to see in the finished product.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“I am a disabled solo-developer, so the length of Early Access will largely depend on how much the community asks for. I'd like to have the game finished within the year, but am more than happy to continue developing as long as players are interested and enjoying it!”

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

“More levels and visual improvements are my main goals. I'd also like to add a tutorial.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game is very much playable, both in single-player and co-op. There is probably 20+ hours of gameplay, even when playing as a larger group.”

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

“No plans to change the price on leaving Early Access.”

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

“Community requests for content, features, fixes, etc will all be taken into consideration. I will do my best to make the game as good for everyone as possible, but please remember I am a disabled solo-developer, and can only do so much.”
