Why Early Access?

“Football Heroes is a big game with lots of moving parts - we have over 280 unique players, tons of Super Moves, team customization, player leveling, online multiplayer, as well as Season mode. We need your help to point out what needs to be rebalanced, polished, changed, or just plain fixed. We also need to know if we are missing a major feature that could make Football Heroes Turbo the best game it can be. We'd like to test our netcode in a live environment and make sure that players of all skill levels are seeing great matchmaking without lag or bugs. Right now, your feedback is critical to us. We love this game and are proud to share it with you today, but we know it can be better. With your help, we believe that when we leave Early Access, we will have created the best arcade football game together.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Our goal is to be in Early Access for no longer than six months.”

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

“Our Early Access game is ready to play and fun, but we know we need to make improvements before our full release. Our main focuses include:

• Improved netcode and multiplayer balance
  
• Tuned Super Moves and player leveling curves
  
• Tuned Season mode to provide appropriate difficulty for players of all levels
  
• Online ranking / divisions
  
• Improved matchmaking based on online rank and team value
  
• Improved AI to provide a better challenge for higher-skilled players
  
• Improved visuals (lighting effects, animations, particle systems, etc.)
  
• Remappable controls
  
• New features as suggested by the community

”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Our game is fully playable with the following features:

• Online multiplayer with matchmaking and limited bugs
  
• Season mode ready for single-player action
  
• Team and player leveling - unlock new Super Moves while improving player stats
  
• Team management - purchase more powerful Free Agents and sub them in
  
• Team customization - change your team name, city, colors, and logo
  
• Full controller support

”

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

“The game will be discounted during Early Access and we will increase the price after full release.”

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

“We are at a critical point in the development of Football Heroes Turbo, and we need your feedback to help balance the game. What Super Moves need to be buffed? Is this specific player too powerful? Are certain plays broken? Are we missing a key feature that would make this the best football game on Steam? We will be actively engaged with the community through Steam Community Forums, Twitter, Facebook, and Discord. We encourage any suggestions and would love to hear what you think about the game. We want you to be a part of our community and help shape the development of Football Heroes Turbo.”
