Repeated intro
Hello, i'd like to start by apologising for delaying Ergo for several months, while this was never the plan it was necessary. Now for the main points.
What changed
- UI and audio
- Gameplay
- Events
Ergo is coming to steam on May 9th 2022
It will be in early access as the game isn't complete
The game contains Budget voice acting (This is out of my control as a solo dev)
The game will retail for the following prices $6.99, £5.19, €5,69
What will the game contain in Early Access?
The game contains the following
All 19 playable levels, All of these levels are not finalised and may be drastically changed following player feedback
Save system, This saves the last played level.
Level select, Levels can be replayed after the player has completed them
Spectator camera, enabled by default, this can be disabled within the settings
Hidden Trinkets, finding all the trinkets in the level will reward the player with extra rooms / content on the main menu (Not ready for EA, however stats will be saved so, no fear of having to find them all again!)
Randomised visuals, Items like Monitors, Chairs, Desks, etc can appear with different models/textures every playthrough!
Graphics settings, allowing for adjustments for the best visuals or performance
Gameplay settings, want to move with your left hand, right hand or use your head, want smooth turn, want to turn fast or slow, all changeable here!
Audio settings, game too loud, sound too annoying or voice acting to budget? lower or disable the audio entirely!
What's planned before leaving Early Access?
Bug fixes
Framerate improvements
Level adjustments
Level improvements
Secrets
Subtitles
More areas to explore
Rewards, related to the Trinket System
Player feedback
And much more!
I hope you're looking forward to Ergo's release; This has been a long time in the making and I'm hoping to continue development using your feedback / suggestions.
