Why Early Access?

“What's playable today is a solid foundation: the core driving, Highway and City modes, the Daily Challenge, and a first set of cars, upgrades and paint. Much of the game is still undecided. We want players involved now, while their feedback can still change it. That includes how hard the game should be, which modes and roads come next, how progression and unlocks should feel, and how it plays on PC with keyboard and controller. WRONG WAY BUDDY is hard on purpose, and thousands of real runs will show us where hard turns into unfair much better than internal testing can.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect about 6 to 12 months, depending on what players ask for and how development goes.”

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

“We plan to potentially add more roads and environments, more cars and paint options, and new challenge modes and weekly events. We also plan to tweak progression and difficulty based on player feedback, and to add more achievements and more languages. Which of these we build first, and what else gets added, will depend a lot on what the community tells us.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game demo is playable from start to finish of a run. It includes seven Highway roads, City mode, the Daily Challenge, a first roster of cars with upgrades and paint, Steam achievements, leaderboards and Cloud saves, and keyboard and controller support. Difficulty balance, progression pacing and the PC controls are still being tuned. Expect rough edges, missing features and significant changes between updates.”

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

“We plan to raise the price gradually as we add content. Anything you buy during Early Access is yours to keep”

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

“We plan to use the Steam discussions and our Discord to collect feedback and run polls on which features and content to build next. We'll post a public roadmap and update it as priorities change, and we'll publish patch notes as Steam events. Player feedback and the leaderboard data will shape the balance changes.”
