Tomorrow, Tuesday 23.06.2026 at 18:00 CEST, the Early Access launch begins - an epic synthpunk video game development journey I'm brutally hyped for. If you join me on this journey, I have a bit of info for you to start with:

  • Early Access will launch in the same state as the current demo version.

  • The demo remains available, mainly for players who want to try the game before stepping into Early Access.

  • The current gameplay sequence offers approximately 5 minutes of gameplay.

  • After the Early Access launch, the HEAVYDELIC project will be gradually expanded with new levels, challenges, and improvements.

  • As the content grows, the game price will increase slightly.

  • Both the demo and Early Access will take you into the opening section of the first level.

How are you planning on involvingthe Community in your development process?
