Morbid Metal, a roguelike action game, has officially launched into early access, concluding a nine-year development period. The game's creator, Felix Schade, began the project as a university assignment, initially envisioning a vastly different, origami-themed experience.
Schade's vision evolved significantly over the years, transforming into the current sci-fi aesthetic. A pivotal moment came when a Reddit post gained millions of views, attracting publisher interest and leading to a partnership with Ubisoft.
This collaboration allowed Schade to expand his team to 11 developers. The game is now available on Steam, with the team emphasizing the importance of ongoing player feedback to refine the gameplay.
A limited-time 25% launch discount brings the price to $13.49 / £11.99 / AU$20.21.
