What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early access is the only way this game can be made. You have no idea how small our team is, how little our resources are, and how long it has taken us to get this far.

Building an entire game that we launch 100% completed day one? That isn't an option for us. Seriously, it just straight up isn't possible.

But... if we start small and build this project slowly over time, using community feedback to steer us in the right direction? That works.

That's why we're in early access.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The only answer to this question... is that we will be in early access for as long as we need to be. The more that people spread the word, donate, or contribute to development... the faster we'll release out of early access. However, I have no intention to rush that process.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“Our ultimate objective is to create a game that has all the same standard features you would expect from a typical multiplayer sandbox shooter. Vehicles, a variety of game modes, a mission editor, and hopefully more.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Currently the game is at our first major milestone... a fully fleshed out first person shooter with a focus on infantry gameplay. The game currently includes single player missions, cooperative game modes, multiplayer servers, mod support, and most other features you'd expect from a standard first person shooter. As time goes on, we intend to continue expanding on these features.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The game will be free. Forever. Patreon members and paid supporters may be granted access to alpha builds of the game, however Operation: Harsh Doorstop will never cost money to play.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Our community IS the development process. Our games have all started as community projects, and they will end as community projects.

If you are interested in helping to develop our games, please contact us. Community feedback is critical to our work, and we welcome anyone who is willing to help.”
