What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“MONOMYTH is a vast RPG developed by a single person, featuring numerous complex systems including combat, dialogue, and even small features like playable instruments. In addition to these mechanics, the game has a substantial amount of content.

The goal of Early Access is to receive feedback and ensure that all these systems are interacting correctly. Player testing will help fix subtle design flaws and make sure that the game runs efficiently on a wide range of machines.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The game will approximately remain in Early Access for six to twelve months.”

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

“I plan to introduce three additional major areas during the game's early access phase.

I also plan to improve the combat and AI systems further. The full version is intended to offer a wider selection of spells, weapons, and enemies.

Additional quests are planned as well.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Currently, the game features two major areas, a central hub, and several smaller dungeons. All character skills and side features, including blacksmithing and fishing, have been implemented. The game's data includes all spells and weapons. Numerous enemy types, puzzles, and environmental challenges are already in place.”

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

“There are no plans to increase the price during Early Access. However, after the full release, the price will increase based on the final scope of the game.”

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

“MONOMYTH was originally funded through Kickstarter. It receives regular project updates and video devlogs, which are also posted on Steam. The game has an active Discord server, and the developer engages regularly with the community on the Steam community hub.”

About This Game

As the sun sets on the empires of mankind and civilization crumbles under great storms ravaging the world's surface, the people of Ariath retreat to the underground.

Amidst the chaos of this dying world your father, King Ferodin the Third sent an expedition to the fallen fortress city of Lysandria.

It is said, that within the ruins of the fortress lies the primeval seed - a divine gift that may calm the gods' anger and put an end to the roaring thunder in the sky.

Spearheaded by your own brother, the expedition hoped to retrieve the sacred object but was never heard of again.

Against your father's wish, you decide to travel to Lysandria yourself.
