Why Early Access?

“We've been working on Beat Champion since early 2018 and even though the game is nearly complete as it stands, we want to ensure we get as much community feedback as possible to help shape the game before final release.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Beat Champion is going to launch with the Beat Champion Editor Tool in Early Access. This means you will be able to create your own songs, songs packs, background effects, color schemes, and notes colors all on day one. Not only that, but the editor also supports importing and exporting to make sharing of your creations easy! After entering early access, our primary goals are to fix bugs, expand the modding tool, release new songs on a regular basis, and build a competitive multiplayer mode. Release of the multiplayer mode will likely signify full release of the game.”

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

“The early access version includes a base set of gameplay features. It includes a single player mode which allows you to play any of the 10 included songs at any difficulty. For full release we will be implementing a multiplayer mode and any popularly requested features.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The early access version will release fully playable. Early access will allow us to develop new game modes and iron out any kinks before full release.”

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

“No. The price will never increase and we'll never ever implement a pay-to-play system. All future released songs will be free.”

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

“The only way a company can develop a product that is truly great is to build it upon the feedback solicited from their users. We want to gather as much feedback as possible to help guide the development of Beat Champion to ensure the community feels like this was made for them.
