Encased Update #31 - New Screenshots

Dark Crystal Games' Fallout-inspired RPG Encased is on a steady course towards an Early Access release that should be going live sometime before summer. The game's latest Kickstarter update shares a few fresh screenshots that show off its varied environments, invites us to wishlist Encased on Steam and brings us up to speed with the game's development. Check out the update for the screenshots and their detailed descriptions, and here's some general info:

The graphics for Encased are slowly but steadily taking on a more polished and distinctive shape. It’s very important to us that with a single glance at the screen, players can say, “Yeah, I know that game!" Our artists and level-designers are working long and hard to fulfill that goal.

Why don’t we check on some of their work? Let’s take a look at screenshots from some of our work-in-progress locations.

We really want to release Encased right on the dot. We’re going all-out to deliver alpha- and beta-versions to our backers without delay. But sadly, we’re not quite making it.

Perfectionism is to blame. None of us wants to release raw product. It’s not about reputation, but simply because we respect our players, because we’re just like you. We’re making a game we ourselves would wish to play.

So the release date may be delayed, but not by much. Early Access will begin before the summer. Before that, we of course intend to keep our Kickstarter promises. Everyone who pledged for alpha and beta access will have it in due time.

Right now, we’re working hard, trying to not lose touch with our player base, remembering our promises, and relying on your support. Believe us, we really value your continued faith and support.
