Dlaczego wczesny dostęp?

„Every time I watch someone playing a game I learn something new. Better games are only recognized as such after being subjected to, and refined by, the crucible of play. Therefore developing a community around individual games as they mature can only ever be a good thing for development. As a feedback mechanism, exposure is vital to attaining an entertaining, cohesive game experience.”

Mniej więcej jak długo gra będzie w fazie wczesnego dostępu?

„This is difficult to answer as I cannot currently afford to develop games full-time. I do however pour my other waking-hours into it like a demon. I can reveal that the large building blocks are in place, and as such adding content takes a much shorter relative time. An estimate of many months, maybe up to a year, would be needed to add a suitable amount of content to occupy players. I would ideally like to continuously add content, narrative threads, tools, enemies, boss-fights, etc. for as long as players feel that it is actually adding to the experience.”

Czym różni się zaplanowana pełna wersja od tej z wczesnego dostępu?

„The full version will contain enough narrative threads, levels, tool combinations, etc. to constitute relatively unique journeys for each play-through.”

Jaki jest obecny stan wersji z wczesnego dostępu?

„It is a 'feature-complete' vertical-slice demo of the game consisting of an extensive tutorial, a few levels, a scattering of boss fights, a handful of narrative threads, a few characters, and enough tools to make those levels interesting.”

Czy cena gry ulegnie zmianie podczas i po wczesnym dostępie?

„The price will likely increase, but only marginally, upon full-release. This is merely to reflect the state of the game at that time.”

Jak zamierzacie włączyć społeczność w wasz proces tworzenia?

„I routinely update feedback forms over at http://arborealgames.com/Games/MrMakeshifter/feedback/ for players to categorically convey their experience back to me. The steam community hub shall undoubtedly also form a large part of the feedback process. I have thus far read every single player comment and email, and intend to try, insofar as is reasonable, to continue to do so. I love hearing player's ideas for potential tools, characters, etc. as they often reflect their own individual experiences with the game in a meaningful way. I plan on initiating open discussions and/or AMA threads sporadically, and have previously assisted in contests for custom content for the game, and may do so again.”
