Чому дочасний доступ?

«We want to make Polterguys with YOU, the folks who will play it. We have a solid core mode, but behind the scenes, the game is a technical sandbox and we can take it anywhere we want - together!»

Як довго гра буде у дочасному доступі?

«We expect the game to be in early access for at least 6 months, possibly up to a year.»

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

«Early access gets you 4 polished levels and the core game mode, but most importantly, it has Professor Conical's Lab: an experimental area where each week we share with you different work in progress we've got brewing, from power-ups and possessables to new levels and game modes, and you can try them out and tell us what you think! Over the course of Early Access, popular content in the Lab will be polished up and promoted to the main game!
We expect to ship the full version with a minimum of 12 levels and 6 game modes, but we would LOVE to make more. The income from early access sales is going to run the team, so the better we do, the bigger the team, and the more content we can add!»

Який поточний стан версії для дочасного доступу?

«Early Access will launch with 4 levels, 4 playable Polterguys to unlock and 32 Possessions to collect, and our core game mode, "Last Polterguy Standing". It has a prototype 'trophy road' which allows you to unlock and upgrade your Possessions and abilities, leaderboards, local split-screen play, and semi-competent bots - so you can learn the ropes in peace if you like!
You can play our demo to check out 2 of the 4 levels, with reduced player counts of 4 - although you can still try it with 8 players if you make a custom game!
We think this is a solid, polished base to start from.»

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

«Yes. The full game will be more expensive than the early access, and we'll have to see how much we can surpass our content goal. Being a small independent team, we dearly need some income, and that's where the early access players will be a huge support, but we also want to make sure you are getting the full game for less.»

Як ви плануєте залучати спільноту до розробки гри?

«We want you involved in everything!
Some of the dev team will be sharing development updates each week, and we will get together once a week to play and stream with early access players to showcase what is coming to the Lab that weekend.
Remember, the Lab is early, rough work - you may have to see past the grey boxes and placeholder sound effects that could blow your eardrums (not really!), and judge based on if you are having a blast or not. Then we will develop a simple way for you to have your say. We're on the Discord channel every day and looking forward to your feedback and ideas!»
