Why Early Access?

“The main campaign of Tail and Chaos is already playable from beginning to end, but we want to improve the game together with the community before version 1.0. Player feedback will help us refine build variety, balance, routes, Expedition mode, controls, accessibility, performance, and long-term caravan progression.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We currently expect the Early Access period to last approximately 6–12 months. This estimate may change depending on player feedback, the scope of required improvements, and the time needed to reach the desired quality for version 1.0.”

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

“We plan to improve balance, interface clarity, accessibility features, performance, localization, and overall presentation. We also intend to further develop Expedition mode, the caravan, and post-campaign progression. Available content may expand based on community feedback, and specific plans may change during development.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current version is playable from beginning to end. It includes three acts, each available in a full 30-minute or short 15-minute format, four heroes, 15 weapons, 19 upgrades, synergies, evolutions, routes, events, elite enemies, and three bosses in each act.

Expedition is also available, linking all three acts into a single journey at the standard pace. Players choose a Caravan Law and a rescued specialist, carry one item between acts, and receive a combined final result.

The game features permanent progression, 60 achievements, an encyclopedia, and interfaces in Russian, English, Spanish (Spain), Brazilian Portuguese, French, German, and Simplified Chinese. Keyboard, controller, and mouse are supported, along with interface scaling and adaptation for 16:10 displays.

The game is still being refined, so players may encounter balance, presentation, or technical issues.”

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

“Yes. The Early Access price is lower than the planned price of the full version. We plan to increase the price when the game leaves Early Access and reaches version 1.0. We do not currently plan to increase the base price during Early Access. Any price change will be announced in advance.”

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

“We monitor Steam Discussions, reviews, and bug reports, and publish development news and update notes. Recurring feedback influences our priorities for balance, interface design, accessibility, controls, performance, and technical fixes leading up to version 1.0.”
