Perché l'accesso anticipato?

“The Steam Early Access program is one of the most effective tools for contributing to the development of a video game. If you support us you will make a decisive contribution to the development of Vorax and you can help us create one of the most exciting hardcore horror survival games ever conceived.”

Per quanto tempo questo gioco rimarrà in accesso anticipato?

“The Vorax project is designed to be supported for a long time. A rough estimate right now is at least a year. We have dozens of gameplay ideas in the prototype phase that we would like to bring to the attention of our fans and furthermore the world of Vorax will be enriched with additional quests that will support the main narrative.”

Quali saranno le differenze fra la versione completa e quella in accesso anticipato?

“Early Access Version will be released when it will be possible to complete the main story (and therefore "beat the game").
We plan to include in final version the main questline , several additional quests and new locations to explore in the large 10 square kilometer map.

Furthermore, many gameplay elements are planned in the early access development phase which are now in the prototype phase and which we prefer to focus on only once we have received feedback from the players.
This is an absolutely non-complete list of all the things that we plan to include:

• First-person surveillance drone and kamikaze drone mechanics. To be found in game or craftable.
  
• Flamethrower and fire-spreading weapons mechanics. Dynamics of fire spread on enemies and objects.
  
• mechanics of reflector light and intense light sources which stun/blind photosensitive enemies. Craftable. Need to be powered by energy network.
  
• New vehicles with emphasys on military ones
  
• New secondary bosses
  
• New monsters new puzzles and new Npcs.

”

Qual è lo stato attuale della versione in accesso anticipato?

“The Early access version actually ( November 2023- Version 0.6.x ) has approximately 70% of the main quest line currently playable.
It will release ( Estimate: Q1 2024 ) once it will reach 0.9 when the main questline will be finished and fully playable and therefore will be possible to complete the main story.

Actually ( version 0.6 ) the game features:

• A large and detailed game environment on a 10 square km map.
  
• a complete village you can explore plus dozens of houses and secondary locations.
  
• 10 diferent enemy types each one with its unique attack pattern ( more to come )
  
• 4 Bosses and 3 secondary ones.
  
• Buildable barricades, fences, traps, sticky bombs, explosive bombs, molotov.
  
• Craftable tools and melee weapons / cutting trees and bushes mechanics
  
• Hunting and cooking mechanics / Healing mechanics
  
• A day-night cycle affecting gameplay with most enemies being photosensitive and drakness affecting your mental sanity.
  
• dynamic weather system affecting gameplay with fog and infected rain dynamic
  
• 3 different Driveable vehicles
  
• 10 different ranged weapons and over a dozen of melee ones

You can experiment most of it in our downloadable demo that we regulary update.
We encourage you to play it and report feedback in the Community Hub.

The core software powering demo and full game is exactly the same, the only differences being that demo map is just 1km sq ( one fraction of the main world ) and most weapons, enemy types and locations are not present in the demo.

An experienced survival horror player can complete the demo in 2-3 hours.”

Il prezzo del gioco varierà durante e dopo l'accesso anticipato?

“Yes. The price will increase once the game leaves Early Access program.”
