Why Early Access?

“As a first-time single developer team, every game feature takes quite some time to develop. There are still features I would like to add and others I would like to expand (more game options, more unlockables, alternative ending path, etc.)
I want first to see if people are interested in my game and in which features in particular. Investing time in developing features that are not interesting to the players is a huge risk and time-consuming.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Between 1 and 2 months, depending on players' response.
if the player response is big I will further expand the game's concept.”

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

“My plans right now are:

High Priority

• Smooth user experience.
  
• Find and fix bugs.
  
• Learn from users what they would like to be prioritized.

Medium Priority

• Add more tests, quizzes and games.
  
• Add alternative path to ending.
  
• Add more feedback regarding tests and quizzes.
  
• And more fun!

”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The state of the game is that of an alpha version. It lacks several features I want to implement but it's usable and can be tested and played with.
Right now, users can do everything mentioned in the "About this game" section. And more particularly, they can reach one of the game's endings naturally.”

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

“Yes, the Early Access version will be around 50% cheaper than the final version.”

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

“My game is a lite unconventional and will need involvement by the community. It has some secrets that will probably need collaboration to figure them out.
Plus, because it expects unconventional interactions with users, everyone might have a different experience. I need to know how people are interacting with it to assess whether some hints are too obscure or too obvious, etc.
Users can use Steam's forums to communicate (I will be checking them) and also go to augmentedintrospection.com and fill out the contact form to ask for answers, help, etc.”
