Jump Space Early Access<\/h2>\n
By releasing into Early Access, developer Keepsake Games has created a bunch of positives for both them and their intended player base. Not only does the iterative and community-focused software development cycle of Early Access allow for Jump Space to be much more keenly shaped by the folk that will eventually get to play the game, but it also allows those same players to feel much more invested in the final product, too, by speaking directly to the developers on the official Jump Space Discord.<\/p>\n
As with many games that choose the Early Access route, it will be available at a lower price than the final release and is expected to be in Early Access for at least five months, ideally longer, according to the official Steam page for the game. The current state of the Jump Space build is one that is largely feature-complete and with a focus on the cooperative side of things, rather than the solo mode. Though the roadmap hasn\u2019t been released at this point, Keepsake Games has said that future iterations of the game will primarily focus on adding additional content (missions, ships and so on), as well as shoring up the single-player experience. Put simply, if you\u2019re looking to get in on the ground floor of Jump Space, now is absolutely the time to do it.<\/p>\n
Jump Space Gameplay<\/h2>\n
Viewed from both a third-person and first-person perspective, Jump Space aims to combine FPS, space sim and roguelite elements like no game before. As the crew of a fully upgradeable and relatively deadly spacecraft, you must jump from point to point across the cosmos, completing missions, upgrading your ship with permanent shiny new gear and making sure that the whole thing doesn\u2019t fall apart.<\/p>\n
Without putting too fine a point on it, your spaceship in Jump Space is the centre of your universe and should absolutely be treated as such by yourself and your crew. First off, your ship is absolutely crucial for both plotting and getting you from point A to point B, after you\u2019ve chosen one of Jump Space\u2019s many handcrafted missions to take on. Beyond travelling across the stars, your spaceship is also the main way by which you\u2019ll take care of yourself against major incoming threats, with primary weapon systems and secondary turrets that other members of your group can commandeer.<\/p>\n
Elsewhere, much more than just a vehicle by which you can travel through the galaxy, the spacecraft which you and your hopefully not hapless buddies will be inhabiting also very much represents Jump Space\u2019s hub area, allowing you to take on new missions, trade resources and more. What all of this means is that you and your friends need to take tip-top care of your spacecraft, and that means when your trusty ship starts enduring damage, it\u2019s up to you and your space friends to fix it up.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Rather than just going into some dull menus and ticking a box to fix things up, Jump Space demands that you actually have to commit to a space walk, in true Gravity style, to fix any external wear and tear to your beloved spacecraft – something that you can even do while the ship is in motio, thanks to your trusty jetpack and high-tensile grappling hook. Also, it\u2019s certainly worth noting that there will be a raft of internal problems to deal with as well, ranging from fires (which need to be put out) to faulty valves (which need closing off) and a whole heap of other such disruptive maladies.<\/p>\n
However, fixing up and upgrading your ship isn\u2019t free, and to do so, you\u2019ll need to earn, loot and generally collect materia to pay for those aforementioned repairs and upgrades. Elsewhere, and in sticking with its roguelite design, the main progressive thrust of Jump Space is to unlock new persistent parts and upgrades that carry from one playthrough to the next, underscoring the idea that you become more and more capable with each run.<\/p>\n
Ultimately, though, Jump Space is all about nailing that cooperative experience that simultaneously provides the sort of emergent stories and laughs that only playing with your mates can provide, while also offering up those same players a massive galaxy to explore, loot and fight within during every playthrough. In Jump Space, everybody has their role and only by working together in something resembling a functional synergy can you hope to be successful – and we are absolutely here for it.<\/p>\n
