Space Prison Delays Early Access Release Until Later This Year

The team behind the game Space Prison have let fans know the game will not come out in Early Access next week, and has been pushed back.



Article Summary

  • Space Prison Early Access release is delayed to later this year for quality enhancement.
  • Wooden Alien and Firesquid Games aim to meet player expectations with more development time.
  • A feedback tool for player ideas will be launched soon, with closed playtests planned.
  • Survive, craft, and discover secrets in Space Prison, the ultimate space penitentiary game.

Indie game developer Wooden Alien and publisher Firesquid Games announced today that Space Prison won't be released into Early Access next week. The game has officially been deleted until later this year, as the devs need more time to perfect the game and didn't want to publish something they weren't ready to. We have the letter for you below as we now wait to see when it will arrive.

We would like to inform you that Space Prison's Early Access release has been delayed to an unannounced date later this Summer, and will therefore no longer be released on its initial date of April 10, 2024.

We believe postponing the release is the best decision because we want the game to meet your highest expectations while finding the best opportunities to showcase the game to the broadest audience. We are touched to see that so many of you are excited to play the game. Our player community is more than valuable during these additional months of development. That's why we are working on a tool to let you submit your ideas for features and content, and vote on them. It will be released soon.

We will regularly check in with you and plan closed playtests. In the meantime, the demo will still be live for a few more days. We thank you for your patience and understanding. We are grateful for your contribution and ongoing support on this journey!
