Graybeard Games just brought their new passion project, It Lurks Below, to Early Access for $19.99. Despite not having an actual release date, the early impressions have been good, with solid feedback reported from the game's beta testers over the last two months. It Lurks Below is a 2D action-survival dungeon crawler that grabs inspiration from Terraria and of course, Diablo, among others.
The game was developed solely by Diablo creator David Brevik, who was responsible for Marvel Heroes when he headed Gazillion Entertainment. In a recent interview, Brevik had this to say about releasing the game in early access:
“At the Game Developers Conference last month, I talked to a lot of indie developers who recommended doing Early Access through Steam – they basically said I’d be crazy not to do it. I’m flattered by the overwhelmingly positive response to the closed betas and my personal streams of It Lurks Below so far. I read every piece of feedback I receive, and I value any additional thoughts players may have before I finalize the game for its official release. Which of course is…‘Soon.’”
Brevik also plans to do a Reddit AMA (Ask Me Anything) soon at in the near future at www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/ . Time and date will be announced soon via @GraybeardGames and @davidbrevik on Twitter, Graybeard Games on Facebook, and GraybeardGames.com.
