Revealed last month, DreadXP’s ultra-violent FPS PIGFACE now has an August Early Access release window on Steam. A demo is currently available.
“PIGFACE is a project that requires a lot of time and attention to detail in order to design levels of appropriate fidelity and create systems that don’t catch fire,” explains developer titolovesyou. “However, it also features simple objectives with many solutions and an array of equipment for the player to use. Because of this, much of the current content in PIGFACE does not depend on systems and equipment that will be added later.
Rather than waiting until everything is done, it makes more sense for me as a developer to allow players to experience the game as it is, and enjoy the new things as they are added. This gives you, the player, an opportunity to provide feedback to me, the developer, as well as give you the chance to play and replay levels that are designed to be experienced more than once, and sometimes with new, fun tools.”
titolovesyou goes on to say that PIGFACE will remain in Early Access “until it is content complete and polished,” which is estimated to be about a year. The full version will have optional levels that will feature their own narratives and unlocks, with already-completed levels able to be replayed with different gangs, entity AI will be “more responsive and dynamic,” and there will be dozens of additional weapons, additional masks, and a proper game ending.
PIGFACE casts players as Exit, a woman being blackmailed into a gun-for-hire. As you wake up in an abandoned warehouse covered in your own blood, you hear a phone ring from across the room. They’ve just called to let you know that they’ve drilled a bomb into your head, and now they have a job for you. As a result, you must complete contracts for those holding you hostage.
