Why Early Access?

“This is my first published game and I want to understand the market. I feel there is something very playable here and I want to let the community guide it's path. This is a part time deviation for me from corporate boredom, I hope you enjoy the game as much I did creating it!”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“I expect it to be in early access for at least a year but not more than 2 years.”

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

“Great question - Community feedback will drive the road-map. I expect to support languages as needed. Possible even a multi player spin. Integration with Steam cloud stuff like leader boards, achievements and cloud save make sense. Customized ships and other ideas are welcome feedback. I can do a lot more with the faster than light map and procedurally generated universe.

High Level Road-map:

• Language Support
  
• Controller Support - complete
  
• Multiplayer - in progress
  
• Steam Achievements
  
• Steam Cloud Save
  
• Steam API Leader Boards
  
• Level Creator
  
• Feature development

”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Currently, the game has 3 modes - Training, Story, and Arcade mode.

Training has 8 tasks of basic maneuvers. Purpose is to get the player acquainted with the game-play and how things work. Story mode has 16 levels of challenging fixed levels. Players time is recorded and the lowest time gets to be on leader-board. There are unlimited ships on both story and training mode. Arcade mode has auto-generated challenges. Players play for points and survival. There are limited ships in Arcade mode.

There are different types of enemies, planets, ship-boosts, asteroids and other features to make the game fun, engaging and re-playable.

See main description for additional features of the current state.”

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

“Yes, but not by much.”

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

“Going to listen very carefully to what the community says, especially any negative feedback that is founded in validity. I will make use of community pages and offline feedback collection methods.”
