What is the current state of the Early Access version?

• Resource gathering. Gather materials used to craft. Resources are found throughout the terrain. There are few materials. We plan to expand them vastly soon. Here are some; Iron ore, sulfur ore, yarrow plants that are used for healing or crafting items the contain cloth materials, Logs, sticks, chocolate bars, beans, and beef jerky.
  
  
• A solid crafting system. With a solid amount of items to choose from. Here are some; A rifle, bullets, a pistol, a hatchet, a pickaxe, a hammer, an item repair kit, a snare for animals like bunnies, nails, an oil rig, walls to a house, a generator, an oil tank, a sawmill, a fire pit, a fire starter/flint, a pistol sight, string, and a bed.
  
  
• Hostile Enemy Camps. There are only 4 camps spread out through the map. We of course plan to add additional camps with different mechanics to make raiding continuously interesting. Camps contain the following; Enemy soldiers with somewhat accurate aim, chests filled with a variety of different loot type items, and common ore found other places in the world. They also contain architecture objects like; cabins, fencing for protection, and guard towers. Enemies in these camps will only attack you if you attack them first, as they are not entirely sure which faction you belong to.
  
  
• Leveling System We have a basic leveling system in the game. We plan to add different perks and abilities as you level. Right now leveling unlocks various crafting recipes. Most crafting recipes don't require levels. The ones that do are higher use items like rifles and pistols.
  
  
• Survival We have a few survival mechanics that you may have seen similar to other games. We have health, warmth, and hunger. Our survival isn't that hardcore. Usually, food is quite easy to find like chocolate bars, beans, and jerky. It does get tough finding additional food as a pistol takes some grinding to accomplish. The only way to kill an animal is with a firearm.
  
  
• Animals Currently there are only two animals in Northern Regime which is a Deer and a Bear. A deer's primary use is for food and it's pelt. Deer are not hostile and will not attack you. A deer can only be killed with a fire arm. It drops around 5 pieces of raw deer meet you can cook on a fire pit.
