Ideas We’re Exploring Next

Hey everyone,

It’s been a couple of weeks since Sheva launched into Early Access — thanks a lot for the feedback so far. We’ve been looking at gameplay data, watching streams, and it really helped us see what’s working and what needs improvement.

We wanted to share some ideas we’ve been exploring for the future. The image above shows them at a high level, and below is a bit more context.

New ways to fight

Some of these are pretty straightforward — PvP and new difficulty options are about giving experienced players tougher or more competitive ways to engage with the core combat.

Mid-run events, on the other hand, are about breaking up the usual flow of fights. Think of moments where a fight is replaced by a special encounter, a choice, or a situation that changes how the rest of the run plays out — not just more enemies, but different decisions.

Deeper combat

Combat is the core of Sheva, so we’re always thinking about how to expand it without making it too complex or overwhelming.

Ideas like new skills, smarter enemy AI, and more fight animations are about making opponents easier to read and anticipate (most of the time), giving players more options, and of course make the fights flashier!

Quality of life

A lot of Early Access feedback has been about clarity and feel, especially for newer players.

Things like an updated tutorial, clearer tooltips, localization, and better controller support are all aimed at making the game easier to understand and smoother to play.

These are still just ideas, and we’re sharing them because we’d like your input.
If something here sounds exciting (or confusing, or unnecessary), let us know — replies here and discussions on Discord are both super helpful.

Thanks again for playing and helping shape Sheva ❤️

Cheers,

Ben
