Without wasting time, a few words about Early Access:



Why Early Access?

I am a solo developer and the community will be able to try new versions and provide critical feedback to develop Horror Tycoon into the best game I can. I also have the publisher Gameparic helping me with all the rest of the stuff so that I can fully focus on creating the game.

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

The game will remain in early access until all features are complete and the game is stable and fun to play. The anticipated full release is Q3/Q4 2023.

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

  • With the full version of the game, I plan to include the following:
  • 20+ Locations (with more added as player feedback is received)
  • Over 50+ Scare attractions
  • Over 50+ FX (Lighting, Special Effects etc)
  • Over 200+ Building pieces (Walls, flooring, fencing, windows, etc)
  • Over 200+ Props (Paintings, sculptures, rugs, spooky decorations, etc)
  • 50+ Hallway / Room pre-designs for easy implementation
  • 10+ Themes (Manor, Graveyard, Hospital/Morgue, Crime Scene, Laboratory, Aliens, Blood/Gore, Bathroom/Shower, DIY, Witches, Creatures and more planned)
  • Multiple Save Slots
  • Steam Achievements
  • Full length soundtrack
  • 10 Language Localization

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

  • The current state of the early access includes the following:
  • 2 Locations (Backyard Haunt & The Forest)
  • 16 Scare Attractions
  • 9 FX
  • 45 Building Pieces
  • 34 Props
  • 3 Save Slot
  • English Audio/Subtitles Only.

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

Early Access will be given a discount as a thank you for playing and for providing feedback to help shape the direction of Horror Tycoon's development.

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

The community is the main reason for making this game and placing it in early access. With the community providing crucial feedback and suggestions will only help to enhance the game and its development moving forward.


We hope that we have explained all the most important assumptions to you, please remember to share your opinion so that we will know what you expect in the full version of the game. If you have any questions, feel free to chat with us on Discord.



See you soon,
