Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access? I've included the whole test demo level with FIVE difficulty levels to try (and will even shortly be adding a leaderboard / online hi-score table for the test demo, for bragging rights!), which will give most players a feel for the gameplay and what to expect, in terms of playability, and hopefully an indication of my dedication and coding ability!” Hopefully you can see that the main player ship, some enemies, etc are NOT final graphics, and will be improved, but as it stands, it's hopefully still a nice looking level to see where it's going. “Currently just a 'taste' of how my game 'feels' to play, what's to come, or what can be, if it's already close to what players want, in terms of style and 'feel! What is the current state of the Early Access version?

Online global leaderboards and achievements for bragging rights.Many different levels, and hopefully branching levels / progression.BOSS RUSHES and timed Boss Fights modes.

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

I've already released my well-received TETRALOGICAL puzzle game in 2019 (but have been working on it still, in 2020), and that took a year of hard work, so I'm probably looking at at least 8-12 months of my free time, to complete ICARUS to my (and classic shoot-em-up fans!) satisfaction, but it will hopefully become something really special with your help, patience, and support!” “I'm a single indie developer, so this is going to take me a while, but I'm steadily plugging away at it. I can use this to tune the gameplay, controls, add features, tweak difficulty levels, offer different modes, and generally turn ICARUS into what people tell me they would like it to become - you have the power to turn my labour of love game into something that YOU will love.”Īpproximately how long will this game be in Early Access? “Releasing in Early Access, as there's plenty for me to still do, and I'm looking for lots of user feedback from people who've actually played the demo!
