Почему ранний доступ?

«Project Skylab 3: A New Frontier is currently in the Beta phase of development and still needs some work before completed. I want to be upfront and honest with gamers that the game still has some technical issues/bugs, but that I am working hard to resolve them. I want to gather more community feedback before releasing the final game. I am a college student and the sole developer of this game. I want to make learning math more fun and interactive. I have limited financial, and human resources which is the reason development is taking a longer duration of time.»

Чем планируемая полная версия будет отличаться от версии в раннем доступе?

«Project Skylab 3: A New Frontier is subject to change and might differ from its original state. We plan on making the AI more intuitive, adding more math problems, improving the save game system, and better optimizing the game for low-end computer hardware. These proposed changes and improvements are our mission for Project Skylab 3: A New Frontier, but nothing is guaranteed, and the timeframe can’t be guaranteed. Different Game Studio is dedicated to building the best educational video game based on user feedback. Hopefully, our vision for Project Skylab 3: A New Frontier will someday come fully into fruition.»

Каково текущее состояние версии в раннем доступе?

«Project Skylab 3: A New Frontier is in the Beta phase of development. The core gameplay mechanics are working perfectly, such as the character's body movement, character combat/weapons, and character animations. The game's driving mechanics are also working perfectly with vehicle weapons being added in this third game. The save game system is 90% complete with the player being able to save weapons, ammo, and quest items. Currently, two weapons save/load correctly, but adding a third or fourth weapon can cause the Weapon Manager not to function properly. This glitch does not affect gameplay at all, and many weapons are scattered across the map to compensate for this technical issue, which I am working hard to resolve. All ammo and quest items save/load correctly. The AI soldiers and cybernetic robots always respond once loading a save game, even if you have already eliminated them. I apologize for this inconvenience; I am looking into solutions that will address this particular issue. Character footsteps are currently absent due to a technical issue, but the background soundtrack is fully functional. Upon starting the game, if you see the mouse cursor at the bottom of the screen when tilting the player's head down, restarting the game will fix that glitch and the mouse cursor will disappear. Lastly, the rover does not save in any form, however, weaponized rovers are scattered across the map to compensate for this issue.»
