Why Early Access?

“We are releasing Werewolf Hunter X in early access during development to advance the mechanics of our game with the guidance of the Steam Community.

Though still in development the game is already playable, and generally bug free. We are looking for feedback from users on the Item Design mechanic of the game before going forward with further content, story, and level design.

During the Early Access period we plan to release new mechanics for easier and faster crafting in battle, that will need to be tested and fine tuned before the full game release.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Our team typically works in two week sprints, which is based on our game’s current development road map as well as community requests over the course of the Early Access period.

Bug fixes and minor patching will occur weekly to address game issues.

We plan to release the full version of the game in the Fall of 2020.”

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

“The full version will have a polished GUI, improved art, and several other finishing touches and additions to the core game that will be decided in part by the Early Access community.

We are planning several new features to be developed into the game during the Early Access period, including (but not limited to):

• Smoother Blueprint creation process based on user feedback from the Early Access community
• Support for multiple languages and keyboard layouts
• Better character creation to start your journey as uniquely as possible
• Steam trading cards
• Additional music tracks
• Mini games and quests
• More perks
• Improved artwork and animations
• Color Blindness game play compatibility
• Accessibility for the hearing impaired
• And bug fixes”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Werewolf Hunter X is currently playable, but there is still a lot of placeholder art and unfinished content that is important to the main story and play of the game. This leaves the game a little rough around the edges, but playable and mostly bug free. Game progress is hurtling rapidly forward, and content updates are planned to be pushed at the end of two-week sprints throughout Early Access with input from the community.”

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

“Werewolf Hunter X is planned to remain at the current price during Early Access to reward community involvement in the game. After Early Access the price of Werewolf Hunter X is planned to be raised to reflect the finished quality of the game.”

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

“We plan to engage the Steam community regularly through user feedback on the community pages. Votes are planned to be taken on what we add in the coming updates, and contests will be held with in-game rewards. We plan to actively communicate with the players, and use that feedback to help us make the best finished game we can.”
