Чому дочасний доступ?

«I wanted to bring player to a surreal world, hence SKMH.
When I started working on VR and exploring its possibilities. it turned out that scratching the surface of this new medium will require lot more then a guy in garage.
Now, when I added 2nd player coop to play on same desktop, when two players engage with different perspective and controls, it can become quite challenging and fun. It feels like a bridge between two worlds. This difference of being there in VR and being behind monitor with keyboard and mouse while in same room physically feels odd in a good way. There is this feeling when you know there is another player in same synthetic world with different abilities and you do not know what his intentions are. This strange, peculiar premonition is something to be explored even more in future.

As I was trying different types of weapons, interactivity, walking, looking through the walls, I realised that current form is appropriate anchor on which to build and expand. The problem is into which direction should it expand. More story, monsters, weapons or puzzles ?

This game is becoming more and more brutal, that is a fact, but also fun in its strange way.»

Як довго гра буде у дочасному доступі?

«Plan is to have it in early access for few months, but this depends on fresh ideas that will come in.»

Чим повна версія гри буде відрізнятися від версії для дочасного доступу?

«Plan is to have a labyrinth that is different every time you play or at least add different ones.
Replace models of controllers with a model of a tool player is using, this should help with immersion a bit.
- add new kinds of weapons (like fire rain, frozen shards falling from sky etc)
- add portals as additional mechanic (maybe random teleportation for even more confusion ?)
- add contraptions/traps, that player must use to reach the end of labyrinth.
- make better instructions
- better visual feedback when touching items in world
- add more sound for events
- add steam achievements»

Який поточний стан версії для дочасного доступу?

«Playable in VR on HTC Vive, occasional performance hiccups, 5 different monsters, 10+ weapons. 1 labyrinth. Final construction of supreme being is not active (last part is secret as I don't want to spoil it). Sometimes crashes, often crashes on exit. No achievements yet.»

Чи буде відрізнятися ціна гри протягом дочасного доступу та після його завершення?

«Yes, pricing will probably be progressive going up with each major patch.»

Як ви плануєте залучати спільноту до розробки гри?

«For start, I would like to hear from you if its any good, what should be changed or improved. What works and what not. Game is made using available assets, regarding monsters that by the way I like, if community will say that they should be replaced, since they are from asset store I will do my best to do so. To get rid of the models of monsters and replace them with original content will depend on how good the game will do and if I can afford to hire artists.»
