You’ve supported the studio and the game’s development, now show it off in your games. [/p][p][/p][p]⭐Thank you again for being part of the journey and see you in space ![/p]

[p]Species: Unknown is a game where the cooperative aspect is very important to us, and one in which we have put a lot of energy. Our greatest satisfaction isn’t gaining just one more player, it’s seeing a group of friends experience a mission together. [/p][p][/p][p]That’s why we chose to set the price of Species: Unknown at $9.99 for Early Access. A price designed to encourage groups of friends to come and discover our work.[/p][p]This price is our way of saying:[/p]

• [p]“Thank you for being here from the very beginning.”[/p]
• [p]“We want everyone to be able to join in.”[/p]

[p][/p][p]This price will evolve during the Early Access period alongside updates.[/p][p][/p][p]Of course, if you want to go further, the Supporter Pack, coming soon, will allow you to directly support our work on the game while unlocking bonus content.[/p][p][/p][p]We remain an independent, self-funded studio, and every purchase and Steam review helps immensely to get our work noticed by other players.[/p][p][/p][p]Get your team ready, and see you on October 23rd.[/p]
