Frozen State - Released on Early Access

It has been a while since I posted news on the failed kickstarter for Frozen State. The developer Snow Arc has decided to still make the game and released it on Steam.

Here is the latest kickstarter update with information.

Pricing

The Alpha will cost 10$ (the price is the same for every country, but it will be converted into your home currency automatically by Steam, Not us). The price of the game will be growing gradually with the new major updates, and the final game will cost around 20-25$. There won’t be any discounts or sales until the game is finished. 

Platforms 

 At the moment it will be available on PC and MAC, but we are working on Linux version as well.

Steam

I know some of you would prefer a DRM-free copy, but right now we don’t have a good and flexible system to roll out patches and new updates for DRM-free versions. It may not sound as a big deal, but in fact it can cause some issues. Due to this, the game will be available only on Steam, but this is temporarily, once we find a solution, I’ll inform everyone. 

Alpha

Well, we worked a lot for the past eleven months and we did a lot, though the alpha is far, far, far from the final game. At the moment it has very solid foundation, and we will keep improving it, implementing new features and content based on your feedback. 

What to expect 

This build has only one character, twelve locations ( over 1 square km combined) , stealth and crafting systems, cooking, basic needs, random interiors, three types of enemies, permadeath. At this current stage the game plays more like a sandbox roguelike.

Road map

New Updates will be released fortnightly. All our plans on each update can be found on the forum, though it’s not set in stone and can/will change over time http://frozenstate.net/forum/showthread.php?tid=5

Warning

Please read everything carefully, the game is NOT finished. It’s still in development, and its current state is ALPHA. If you have even the slightest doubts about the game, please don’t buy it.

However, your early involvement helps us to make Frozen State better and bigger.
