Why Early Access?

“Chaos Theory is a very ambitious project with a huge scope, therefore to help us make it a reality we have decided to go to early access to bring enough people together and get the next phase of development in full motion.

Please be aware that as we are in very early access there is likely to be some bugs which we will endeavour to resolve with your help. In addition because we have such a large scope for this game we will periodically release updates with more and more features as time and resource allows us to.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Because Chaos Theory's scope is very large and we would not want to release a game before its fully implemented and tested, hence we can not be too exact about the date we will move out of early access, however the more people we get supporting the game the quicker we will be able to bring the game out of early access and in a fully released game.

Having said that we would really like to aim for an approximate estimate for when the game might come out of Early Access which would look like Fall 2019.”

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

“The full version of Chaos Theory will be fully featured with all aspects of our initial scope included. However the scope could change to allow further features to be included, but we will endeavour to make the first initial release a fully functional and playable game with no errors and fully balanced game mechanics.

Although some of the below will be included in the early access release as and when they get developed here are some of the full features;

• Fully interactive environment
  
• Complex and intricate AI & social system
  
• Craft and build many items
  
• Craft and build buildings
  
• Fully implemented combat system
  
• God mode
  
• Multiplayer mode

”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Please be aware that Chaos Theory is currently in very early access and if you purchase the game you will be part of a important group of players that will help shape and develop the game to become its full potential. However all features listed in the "About This" section will be available for you in early access, and when more features get included we will update that section to reflect.

Initially Chaos Theory will be in a sandbox testing mode with some of the basic feature released that will allow you to play a game. However please be aware that saved games are not a feature at this moment.”

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

“The pricing will probably stay the same however, we will include some free features to those who have decided to purchase the game in early access once fully released.”

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

“We take the opinions and feedback from our gamer's community very seriously therefore we will allow all our players the opportunity to be fully involved in the future development of the game. Some of the way we will allow our community to support us and provide feedback will be via email, in-game feedback mechanics and on our forum page.”
