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?

“As an independent game developer, I understand that community feedback is crucial. I want to polish the game together with players through Early Access once it has a complete and playable core experience.Player feedback will help me refine enemy behavior, level pacing, and the difficulty curve, while continuously improving new content. My goal is to make every deep dive into Complex 17 more tense, exciting, and full of variety.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The Early Access period is expected to last about 12–18 months, during which I will gradually polish the game content.”

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

“The full version is planned to feature more weapons and a smarter in-level NPC scheduling system. We plan to add more factions and further flesh out the world-building. New levels will be larger in scale, and existing levels will also be gradually revised and improved.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Players can explore Complex 17, destroy objectives, find elevators, and continuously delve deeper into the complex. The game already has a complete first-person shooter foundation, enemy AI, weapon systems, procedural/random content, and the core gameplay loop.”

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

“I plan to keep a more favorable price during Early Access as a thank-you to players who are willing to participate in development and provide feedback. As more content is added and the game gradually approaches the full release, I plan to raise the price accordingly.”

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

“I will continuously monitor the Steam Community, Bilibili comment sections, and my Discord server to collect player feedback — including bug reports, balance suggestions, and creative ideas — and improve the game based on that input.”

About This Game

"Plunge for Your Life" is a roguelike FPS. You will step into a mysterious complex buried deep underground, with your only lifeline being an old elevator that descends into the unknown.

How long can you survive in Complex 17?

The elevator is already moving, and the doors are about to close. Can you make it out of this place alive?

Hardcore!

Every bullet counts! Control your firing rhythm, manage your ammunition carefully, use cover, anticipate enemy movements, and seize the moment to turn the tide in combat.

Deeper and Deeper

Complex 17 is fraught with danger, and each floor is more perilous than the last. Enemies will be equipped with better weapons and body armor. Your arsenal will improve too.

Destroy! Destroy!

Use C4 explosives to blow up targets and disrupt enemy plans. The powerful destructive power of explosives can hurt yourself, and the suspicious sound will attract enemies. One misstep can lead to eternal regret, please think carefully before taking action.

Evacuate Before They Get You!

You need to find the elevator and escape while being hunted down—don't celebrate too soon until those doors close!

Smooth Weapon / Enemy Animation

The smooth weapon animation is addictive, and every shot is so refreshing!

Immersive 3D Sound

The in-game sound effects have been carefully polished and programmed to provide an immersive experience that makes you feel like you are in Complex 17.
