Greetings Calyx players!

We’re thrilled to announce that the Early Access version of Calyx is now available.

This first official version of the game includes:

Part one of the campaign:

  • Uncover the secrets of the mysterious Avaris corporation

  • Tutorial plus 16 maps

  • 5 difficulty levels

  • Take on 5 species of Calyx

  • Watch out for the evil Liquidator AI!

Tech Tree:

  • Earn Research Points

  • Unlock new technologies

  • Upgrade units and buildings

Skirmish:

  • 7 maps

  • 5 difficulty levels

  • Set the number of Calyx roots

  • Choose starting resources

  • Configure available Ore fields

  • Choose your tech level and generate a layout

  • Share the seed with friends so you can play the same challenge

If you’ve played any of the pre-release demos, you’ll encounter lots of other updates, including a new volcanic biome, improved VFX, more dramatic lighting and the ability to export your end of map summary as a GIF.

Why Early Access?

We’re a small team, and we’ve worked on Calyx for some time already. We believe the game already offers an entertaining mix of basebuilding, combat and storyline, but there are still mechanics, systems and features missing to make it fully rounded. By offering Calyx to a larger audience before full release, we can receive essential feedback to help us build out the experience and make the final game the best it can possibly be.
