Agent 64: Spies Never Die

Is this dead?
I've had this on my wishlist for a year and a half, and it's STILL not even out in it's supposed early access state? The demo was fantastic and very polished, I woulda thought we'd see something long ago.

A very early Early access would've probably been good for my bank account, but long stretches of time without content updates are no fun to go through. I'd rather delay the start of release to avoid that.

Thank you for adding the game on your wishlist back then, when it was barely a prototype just putting it up on Steam. Seeing so many people interested in it truly changed my world. Working solo takes time but hopefully the wait will be worth it.

Thanks for reaching out personally. I am still excited for this. Any chance of pushing out some monthly/quarterly "dev diaries" teasing new maps/characters/weapons? Would certainly help maintain attention.

It's hard to do and time consuming, and a lot of things I'm doing are mostly either hard-spoilers or not very interesting to show off.
It's a difficult balance to hit, but it'll get easier to do once the game is much closer to release.

I'll communicate a lot more as soon as the campaign is far and good enough for it and I'm absolutely sure I wont miss whatever date I'm gonna say. With that said, don't worry, once things will get moving, it will *move*.
I'd rather have a long lull before early access than during.

Would you consider doing a discounted EA with mission unlocks as you work on them? Not sure what your initial price point was, but I could see a good chunk of people doing $5-$10 EA access even if content rollout is slow. Keep in mind, a lot of us OG steam users from the greenlight days have probably wasted far more for games that never got further than what you've got in your demo. lol

It has been up for some time though and the game says it could be 6 months to a year, and we have been waiting what? 2 years? I think this was announced in 2020 or 2021.

All we have been given is a demo of 1 level, nothing much else.

Surely another small teaser mission would be good for us who are waiting, if it's going to be another 6 months.

If it's going to be released before 6 months, then can we get an idea of a date?

Or if you released in several parts, might also be good.

1st phase 3 missions, second stage another 3 missions and so on, we can beta test at the same time and a price could be put out for people to buy the game, would certainly give you some funding as well.

Don't get us wrong, there is a huge shortage of quality games on the market. And we all love what we've seen in your project and we're just looking forward to it.
Keep the progress thread alive, we'll be happy to follow up.

If you have a quality product that you're actively working on then yes for the love of God put it on early access. Long stretches can be ♥♥♥♥ to deal with; however, If the end product is as fantastic as the demo was, who gives a ♥♥♥♥? Lots of benefits like bug finding and ideas being slung your way. Revision is a pivotal for a polished product and there is no better way to gauge how your revisions are going then letting other people look at it.

Early access is made for small devs who actually give a ♥♥♥♥ about their games and actively work on them. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ will always take advantage of a good deal. Just dont be like those other ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and you'll be good to go. Considering what you've shown through the demo, I'd say you're golden.

I'd rather have a complete game come out than having an Early Access that kills the hype on the long term.

I will be patiently waiting D6. You are creating a jewel of a game and I hope you spend the appropriate time on it, no matter how it takes. I will be buying full price on release.
