What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“This game is fully playable and should be mostly* bug free, however there is a number of things I wish to implement before I would consider this to be a "complete" game. It is lacking in a few areas right now and I need public players so I can make sure the game is fair and as balanced as possible by receiving feedback from players. By making the game "Early Access" it communicates that this game is still in development and not a fully polished game.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“I believe this game will be in early access for a year at most, but I'm aiming closer to six months. As soon as a number of key features and milestones have been reached it will leave Early Access.”

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

“I would like the full version to have more playable characters, a "Quick Play" like game search (click a button and it finds a fair match), Player Ranks, more customization, a tutorial, and other possible features.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game structure is there but the depth is not. There is a small amount of characters to play, no tutorial or on-boarding experience, no ranking system, no simplified game search, menus are awkward in some places but still fully functional, there is optimization that is needed, and there is less customization than there will be on the full release.”

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

“The game is free however there are DLCs that allow for in-game customization. The prices for the DLCs will increase when the game is no longer in Early Access, but the base game itself will ALWAYS be free.”

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

“I will take any feedback given by the community and use it for game balance, bug fixes, and discuss any changes made to the game with the community. I want this game to be the best it can be and that cannot happen without the players.”

About This Game

This is a 2 player turn-based strategy game. Think chess meets turn-based RPGs.

Each player's team is made up of one character from each of these positions:
-Forward (Tank) - Usually has high health and damage while also being the slowest character.
-Flex (DPS) - Is flexible with how each character plays but is usually the fastest character.
-Support (Healer) - Has support abilities that enable other characters.

Characters take turns depending on their speed and generate Action Points at the start of each of their turns.

Action Points (AP) are used for either Actions (Attacks / Healing) or Moving (1 AP per tile).
Any unspent Action Points are carried over to the character's next turn up to a maximum of 6 AP.

Hex Grids consist of up to a maximum of 25 tiles of Five different types:
-Spawn: Spawn point for a Character (turns into a grass tile during game).
-Grass: Basic tile with no direct effects.
-Mud: Costs an additional AP to traverse.
-Molten: Take 10 Damage at the end of Character's turn.
-Corrupt: Doubles all Damage Character receives.

You can create your own custom Hex Grids with the in-game editor.

Victory Condition:
First player to kill 2 characters of the Opponent's team.
