Why Early Access?

“Game Dev Arcade is a collection of simple arcade games. The game will enter Early Access with one game available and expand from there!

Bulwark Creative wants to create and shape these arcade games with the communities involvement. Progress on the games are posted on our social media pages, and new features and changes can be implemented based on user feedback.

Early Access is another great way to gauge the communities interest and involve you all in the development process by being able to play the games yourselves, and provide much better feedback on the feel of each game.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“New arcade games are added as development finishes with them. A total of 5 games are planned before Game Dev Arcade leaves Early Access. We will be shooting for an early 2024 release.”

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

“The plan is that more arcade games will be added as they are developed and polished.

We want to continue to add arcade games until we feel the amount and quality of games is deemed sufficient for a full game. At that point Game Dev Arcade will exit Early Access.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The arcade game collection will start with one game: Mars Madness.

Real-time progress on upcoming arcade games can be viewed on Bulwark Creative's social media pages.”

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

“The game will remain free to play with no in app purchases for the entirety of it's lifespan. No price changes are planned, even after we leave Early Access.”

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

“Progress on the addition of new arcade games will be posted in real time on Bulwark Creative's social media pages. Suggestions brought up for the games will be evaluated and implemented during development.

We plan to utilize Steam for the majority of our user feedback, as users will be able to have hands on experience playing these games. Suggestions are much easier to come up with after playing a game for yourself.”
