We haven't set a final launch date, but we are targeting Q4 2024. Please follow us on our social channels or check back on our website for new details and info as it becomes available.
For launch, we're targeting PC through Steam and the Epic Games Store. After launch, we'll be targeting PlayStation 5 as our first non-PC platform. We encourage anyone interested to please add us to your wish list on either store. You can visit our game pages here:

We're developing the game in Unreal Engine 5.
Our team has been working very hard to strike a balance of graphics, frame rates, and hardware support. As a small team, that balance includes how much total time we can invest in performance tuning. Game developers eventually need to make that tough decision to determine a "cut-off" period for hardware support (i.e. how many years back to we go to support the typical hardware of its day).
We haven't finalized specs, but we believe it's reasonable to support hardware from around seven to eight years back. Mainstream video cards introduced in 2016-17 would have been the Nvidia Geforce 1060 and the AMD RX 580. That's what we're aiming for in terms of a minimally viable experience/playability. As we get closer to launch, we'll share additional details regarding total recommended hardware, including minimum RAM and CPU specs.
Our next phase of testing will focus on a private Beta, and anyone interested in helping us with some testing can use the "Private Beta" web form to let us know they're interested in helping out.
That's something else we're working on. It's our goal to launch the game for less than $30.
Since the game is still in development, we don't have a final total game duration. We're aiming for approximately four to five hours total gameplay. After launch, we'll look at possible add-ons and DLC.
