What is included in Early Access?

The Early Access version of Backdraft includes the full single-player roguelike deckbuilder experience as well as online versus mode with lobby support. You'll have access to the core card collection, deckbuilding mechanics, and PvP matches from day one. As development continues, we plan to add new cards, new versus modes, balance updates, and additional features leading up to the full release.

What is the current state of the product?

Backdraft is in active development. The single-player campaign and online versus mode are fully playable, and the core deckbuilding and roguelike systems are in place. You may encounter occasional bugs or balance issues as we continue to refine the game. We are actively working on expanding content, improving matchmaking, and polishing the overall experience based on player feedback.

Will I have access to the product during the entire Early Access phase?

Yes. Once you purchase Backdraft, you will have full access to the game throughout the entire Early Access period and beyond. Your purchase includes the full release version at no additional cost.

How long will the game be in Early Access?

We expect Backdraft to be in Early Access for approximately 3 to 6 months. This timeline may shift depending on player feedback and development progress, but our goal is to reach a full launch as quickly as possible without compromising quality.

How often do you update the game?

We release updates on an as needed basis multiple times per month. This includes bug fixes, balance patches, new content, and QOL improvements. We'll keep the community informed of upcoming updates through our social channels.

Is my progress saved between updates?

Yes. Your save data and progress will carry over between all updates. You will not lose any of your unlocks, decks, or achievement progress when we release a patch. In the unlikely event something breaks, we will help with any migration of save files needed.

Will the price change when the game leaves Early Access?

Yes. Backdraft is available at a reduced price during Early Access. The price will increase when the game reaches full release.
