What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Together, we can create something truly epic.

We are a small team, but we have big dreams. We want to create a game that will amaze and inspire players. A game that will be remembered for years to come.

But we can't do it alone. We need your help. We need you to be a part of this journey. To help us bring this vision to life.

Together, we can create something truly epic.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We estimate that this project will take 1 year to bring to fruition. However, this is just an estimate, and the actual time frame may vary depending on a number of factors, such as the scope of the project, the availability of resources, and the unforeseen challenges that may arise.

We plan on providing regular updates to our players, and to keep them informed of our progress. We believe that by working together with our players, we can create a game that is truly special.”

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

“We plan on adding many more things, such as:
- crafting system (weapons, armor, drinks, food, clothes and many other)
- farming system
- trading system (in some respects we would like to make a system similar to
- follower hiring system (we wish for the player to be able to hire guards for himself or to set/send them to different locations to handle the fighting instead of the player)
- more enemies, locations, bosses, quests and quest types”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current state of the Early Access version is that it is primarily focused on combat. We have a variety of different enemies to fight, as well as a variety of weapons and abilities to use. However, we are aware that players want more ways to experience the world, and we are working on adding more non-combat content.

We are currently working on adding new quests, puzzles, and exploration mechanics. We also want to add more ways for players to interact with the world, such as crafting, trading, and building.

We believe that by adding more non-combat content, we can create a more balanced and engaging experience for players. We are excited to share our progress with you, and we hope that you will join us on this journey.”

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

“We plan to gradually raise the price as we ship new content and features.

We understand that some players may be concerned about the price of the game increasing over time. However, we believe that this is the best way to ensure that we are able to continue developing the game and adding new content. We want to make sure that we have the resources to create the best possible game, and the price of the game will help us to do that.

We plan on providing players with a great value for their money, offering regular updates to the game, as well as new content, throughout Early Access. We will also be listening to player feedback and making changes to the game based on their suggestions.

We believe that by working together with players, we can create a game that is truly special. We hope that you will join us on this journey.”

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

“We believe that the best games are made with the input of the community. That's why we're committed to involving our players in every stage of development.

Here are some of the ways we plan to involve the community:

Polls: We'll regularly poll our players to get their feedback on everything from new features to balance changes.
Emails: We'll send out regular emails to our players with updates on development and opportunities to provide feedback.
Discussions: We'll host regular discussions on our forums and Discord server where players can share their thoughts on the game.
Beta testing: We'll invite our players to beta test new features and content before they're released to the public.

We're always looking for new ways to involve the community, so if you have any suggestions, please don't hesitate to let us know.

We believe that by involving the community, we can create a game that is truly fun and engaging for everyone.”

About This Game

Arise, lowly foreigner, and embark on an epic quest! Unravel the mysteries of this fantasy world, slay the monster that threatens to crumble it, and save it from its own destruction. Or, if you're feeling more ambitious, profit from its collapse.

In this vast and wondrous land, you can be anything you dream of. A humble farmer, a wealthy trader, a brave soldier, a skilled craftsman, a powerful mage, a cunning thief, a fearsome bandit, or even a mighty lord.

The choice is yours. But whatever path you choose, know that your journey will be fraught with danger and excitement. You will face fearsome monsters, cunning villains, and treacherous quests. But if you are brave and resourceful, you will overcome all challenges and achieve greatness.

Will you become a farmer, tilling the land and providing food for your community? Or will you become a trader, traveling the world and bringing goods to those who need them? Perhaps you will become a soldier, fighting for your country and protecting your people? Or maybe you will become a craftsman, creating objects of beauty and utility?

The possibilities are endless. The only limit is your imagination. So what are you waiting for? Start your epic adventure today!
