Why Early Access?

“We're a small indie team who've created something special - an oddly soothing apocalypse with Cthulhu as your painting instructor. The core game loop is complete and incredibly satisfying, but we want to work with our community to add more worlds, objects, and happy little abominations.
Early Access lets us:

Add new areas based on what players find most fun to paint
Expand Cthulhu's commentary with community favorite lines
Perfect the color discovery mechanics based on real player behavior
Build this cozy catastrophe together with the people who get it

We need to sustain development to make this the definitive 'painting reality back into existence' experience. Your support and feedback will directly shape what objects hide in the void and what wisdom Cthulhu shares about them.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“6-12 months. We want to double the content and polish everything based on player feedback.”

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

“We plan to include:

3x more environments to restore (from suburbs to cities to... stranger places)
Hundreds more objects with unique Cthulhu commentary
Additional painting tools and color mechanics
Workshop support for custom worlds
The complete apocalypse repaint experience”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Fully playable with 3 complete worlds, 100+ objects to discover, and hours of Cthulhu's soothing encouragement. Core mechanics are polished and satisfying. You can paint the void right now.”

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

“We plan to gradually raise the price as we ship new content and features.”

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

“Cthulhu wants to hear from you! We'll be actively involving the community through:
Monthly Polls: Vote on which areas to restore next (Paint the Mall with Cthulhu? Paint the Airport with Cthulhu?)
Commentary Submissions: Share your ideas for Cthulhu's observations. The best ones get added to the game with credit! What would an elder god say about a laundromat?
Discord Playtests: Join Cthulhu's inner circle to test new worlds before release and help us perfect the color discovery mechanics
Bug Reports = Canon: Found a weird glitch? Cthulhu will comment on it. "That mailbox is inside-out? These things happen during cosmic reconstruction."
Stream-Friendly Features: We're watching streamers/YouTubers to see what makes people laugh and what objects they get excited about discovering
We believe the funniest apocalypse is one we all paint together. Join our Discord to help shape what emerges from the void!”
