Why Early Access?

“Before the game was published on the Steam store, we carried out a large amount of work on the development of the game, conducted internal testing of demo versions, at this stage the game has many game locations, mechanics, quests and starter content designed for many hours of play. There are plans to have a large stock of new ideas and game features and expand the game world. We believe that early access will allow more players to be involved in the Life Effect universe, which will allow the Steam gaming community to actively participate in the development of the game.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We haven't decided on the exact date, but having a large list of content that needs to be implemented, it will take about 1-2 years of development.”

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

“We are planning a huge world that will have many locations and dungeons, like underground levels, an underwater world, and the opportunity to get into space to get artifacts and alien resources that will help create the best weapons and equipment to fight the enemy. The plot of the game is planned to immerse the player in this amazing world filled with monsters, mutants, aliens, robots, humans and bosses. Areas of activity such as trading, crafting, building fortifications and improving them, attacking enemy supplies, raiding bosses, etc. I plan to pay great attention to the presentation of the history of the world through a variety of storylines and environments that will allow players to learn and understand how the invasion of the planet took place, how to help people in the war against alien invaders.
The full version includes even more content, game items, weapons, robots, drones and resources, your own personal spaceship, bunker and base, advanced leveling of skills and perks, voice acting of game characters and soundtrack.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“At this stage, the game implements the functionality presented in the description of the game. There are also many locations, dungeons, caves, bases and enemy territories. A lot of different types of enemies and quests, equipment and weapons will give you a lot of hours in the game.”

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

“We understand that at this stage our game is not a finished product, and during the time the game is in early access, we will do a lot of work to make the game better and closer to its final appearance, and it is possible that we will increase the cost of our game after its release from early access.”

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

“Prior to publishing the game in early access, we actively worked with the already established gaming community on social networks and on our forums. At the early access stage, we plan to continue communicating with our gaming community, follow the thematic discussions of the players, and listen to the community's opinion, especially if it concerns various issues related to gameplay, balance, and mechanics. In addition, we always monitor suggestions and suggestions for new features in the game, and if these suggestions are supported by the majority of players, we try to implement them. Thus, the community can lead to global game changes, but in turn, if it does not contradict the lore of the game.”
