Why Early Access?

“WastePunk is an experimental post apocalyptic game that blends multiple genres, including survival, extraction shooter and roguelike. As a solo developer this is a considerable challenge. Correctly balancing such a unique experience requires continuous gameplay changes and revisions on mechanics. Feedback from the community and experienced gamers is crucial to shaping WastePunk into an amazing new gamestyle!

By participating in Early Access, you get to experience the game early and share your thoughts on what works, what doesn’t, and what you’d love to see added. I can fix issues, enhance features, and add new content that makes the game even more fun.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“1-2 years”

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

“While in Early Access, I want to add character customization, custom gun builder and new locations. In the full version, I would like to have a fully-fledged story as a classic post-apocalyptic tale, along with all the current features in a finalized, polished state.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“WastePunk is currently playable without any gamebreaking bugs. WastePunk has been in closed alpha for about 3 months before steam to test gameplay, fix bugs and provide QoL improvement before launch on Steam.”

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

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