What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“For our studio, this is the first stand-alone project of such level. Aside from that, we are making a game for VR, which in itself is a new and rapidly developing sector for the entire gaming industry. Therefore we'd like to travel this path together with our audience and to perform some part of the development with maximum consideration for the players’ testimonials.

Does there have to be more fierce battles or unhurried researches? The early version has presented 4 missions with different gameplay variations. It is important for us to know how the players will perceive these different approaches, which direction they will choose.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The game will be under early access for 9-12 months. We are planning to release the full version in the first quarter of 2019.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version will contain a completed story of the space expedition of 2301 that includes about 15 missions. We are going to show new planets of the Wasp-21 system, new regions of the already familiar planets, new opponents, new classes for the players. There will be a lot of new content!”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“This is a fully playable version consisting of 4 different missions that demonstrate the different sides of gameplay in FARHOME. There is a single-player mode and a cooperative mode. Each mission has its own set of opponents and its own environment: the desert, the jungles, the Ancients’ caves, and the space.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We are planning to increase the price of the game at the moment when the full version is released.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“The process of development will be as open as possible. You will see the concept arts, the videos, and the development diary. The schedule of updates and detailed reports on the game’s development will be published in social networks, and we will surely consider and take account of all the comments, wishes and suggestions. Your reaction to our posts will let us adjust the process of the project’s development and to add exactly those features you’d like to see in it.

This is our first project under our own label, and we’ll be grateful to our users for their participation in its development and for the opportunity to create an impeccable product.”

About This Game

FARHOME is an adventure-type science fiction game for virtual reality devices with focus on cooperative walkthrough and on the use of the characters’ special abilities.
You are in for a perilous journey to the Wasp-21 Ariadne system to explore its planets and to find out what the ancient civilization's vestiges conceal.

In the early 24th century, people from the emaciated Earth are looking for a new world to live in. The players will become members of an elite special purpose squad accompanying a large space mission. The goal of the expedition is to deploy the base, to get the extraction of the most precious cyrium up and running, and also to get ready for launching the Portal that will allow the Earthians to relocate to a new place of residence. But the new world holds its own threats and challenges.

The missions are intended both for cooperative walkthrough and for fighting single-handed. Combining the strong points of the weapons and the special abilities of the squad members will make each combat unique. The gameplay of FARHOME is a combination of different styles: here you will find both the combats with a lot of shooting and the unhurried exploration of other planets’ worlds.

The game supports multiple modes of getting about (long-distance teleportation, short-range jumps, conventional movement by gliding along the surface). We’ve tried to make the locomotion system as comfortable as possible, without the motion sickness effect in the virtual reality.

FEATURES
  • Different classes of fighters in the squad, each of them is equipped with their own types of weapons and unique abilities
  • Alternative modes of shooting for all weapons
  • Diversity of the enemies’ types with unique behaviors and reactions to different types of weapons
  • Possibility of equipping the squad with regard for the specific nature of the mission and of the prospective enemies
  • Open levels on different planet types: jungles, dungeons, deserts, missions on a spacecraft and in the deep space
  • The Unreal Engine provides for an amazing level of graphics

Enjoy the game!
