Miksi Early Access?

With our two-person development team, we thrive on creating the best experience for ourselves and players. Early Access gives us the chance to, yes, release early build(s), but also have the chance to continuously build the game how we or the community wants. With our team's limited time this is the best option for us. Our current goals for Dwarves Mining Idle is to insure the grind aspect is up to our standards and Semi-Idler standards. We want to make sure you can play continuously if you're active and have features to make the game fully idle if you're away. More so, we're big on bug fixes. Before we're ready to completely release major new content, we feel that it is best to work on fixing bugs first. Not only that, we have major updates planned that will include a huge amount of content. Roadmap included below for more details about our planned updates.

Miten kauan peli tulee arviolta olemaan Early Access -vaiheessa?

Until we see fit that the game is stable, content is abundant and all roadmap promises have been met. Roughly by 12/31/24.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

Our planned features will include a bit more of a grind and micro-managing. One of the major planned additions is "The surface" where it'll add a TON more content -- not just underground, but above ground. With the full version we also plan to add a lot of QoL changes to the UI and other mechanics of the game to make players enjoy the game better without being overwhelmed. Roadmap included below for more details about our planned updates.

Muuttuuko pelin hinta Early Access -vaiheen jälkeen?

After careful consideration the price after Early Access will be slightly increased.

Miten yhteisö otetaan mukaan kehitysprosessiin?

We have a discord where the community can give us ideas and create bug reports to insure the game is working up to our and your standards. This goes for the Community Hub discussion forum as well. The community will have a say in our planned major changes to the game that will potentially create game changing mechanics that could impact certain grinding aspects. We want to make sure that the new updates aren't forcefully removing fluid, consistent ways of grinding - and that's where you'll come in by giving us ideas on these updates!
