changedOnly one day and couple of hours left until the alpha starts! Woooooo! If you don't have your key already, nudge us on Discord and we will send you one! Some development hurdles and your feedback and bug reports - of course - changed our plans a bit, so here is a quick FAQ to tell you what to expect: 1. When does the alpha start? How long will it be open? Alpha will start on Saturday, June the 16th - around 8 pm CEST time. It will be open until 12 pm CEST. Yes, we will keep it online for only 4 hours this first time. We will prolong the alpha time as we go on with the testing. 2. I am a streamer, can I stream it? No streaming or recording yet. Sorry about that guys, we know we told a couple of you we will try to make it streamable around the first testing date, but we didn't manage to make a complete gameplay demo yet, so there is no point in streaming it and we don't want the users to get a wrong impression about what the game is. We love Streamers and Youtubers and we plan to allow streaming around 5th of July (can't say for certain yet but that is our goal). Just a bit more patience guys! 3. So it won't be the full gameplay? Oh snap. Unfortunately, not yet. We had quite a bit of development problems and a lot of reports from you guys to work on, which messed up our plans, so we have to further delay the full gameplay. It will feature a custom game mode we plan to leave in as an optional mode though if you guys will like it. 4. Oh noes! Can we at least finally try the demon? Yes. The demon will be included in this alpha testing, finally! We will play a game mode similar to what we presented at Infogamer expo a couple of years back. 1 player will be the demon, and everyone else gets guns. Whoever kills the demon will become the demon, but only the demon can get the score for his kills! 5. So, you are taking your time again? HUH? Well, yes and no. We are in a development phase now where it takes a lot of time to do stuff, since everything needs to be as polished and as bug free as possible. Much of the stuff is ready for the final gameplay, it's just that we don't want to give you an unfinished and unpolished version of it, that is why we are giving you a custom game mode to play first. We want to avoid a situation where you guys report stuff to us that we already know about. Also, in this mode there will be lots of interactions and more people on the server than usual, so it will all break much more than in the normal mode. That is the point of the testing! To break stuff! We are working on the game constantly, 7 days a week for a while now, so we can assure you we are doing our best. You guys must consider the fact that we also had to rewrite much of the game systems that you saw working on the expos we attended. 6. Is there a limit to players in game? We are currently limited to 100 concurrent players ingame. So if you don't get in, just try in a couple of minutes. The limit will go away some time in July, once we allow streaming and wrap up the full gameplay. 7. Can I play with my friends? Currently the matchmaking is random and without a party system. Sorry about that, we didn't implement a party system yet. But as soon as we get the full game version done, we will implement it. So it will just be missing for the first few testings. 8. How long will alpha testing phase last in general? We will test the game throughout the June and July. We plan to release it in early access around the end of July or if there will be problem, the very start of August. 9. I can't make it for this test, when is the next one? Also, why only 4 hours? My time zone won't allow me to play! The next test will be next Sunday at the same time as this one. The first few tests will be short like this, but later we will make the testing go for at least 12-24 hours so everyone can play. 10. So tests will be every weekend? Well, not certain, but definitely plan is to test at least once a week. Every test we will announce the next test. 11. Where do I report the bugs and give feedback? Although we planned to do an in-game bug report system (which we still might do when the full version testing starts), for now we will gather feedback and reports on our Discord .
