Waarom vroegtijdige toegang?

'ZOR explores some wild new ideas in the combination of cards, survival and tactics, so we want to have a period of community involvement before adding the full slate of content and meta progression. Things like balance, difficulty, quality of life will be a constant effort, but more importantly we want to get a clear understanding of what aspects of the game to invest in more, and which to adjust. (rather than make everything and find out we need to change half the game)
We want our early access period to be a demonstration of our integrity and passion as a developer. We plan to be focused and deliberate with each step, fully transparent, and make it fun to participate in.'

Hoelang blijft dit spel ongeveer in vroegtijdige toegang?

'We are planning on releasing later this year, when the date is locked down we will announce it.'

Hoe gaat de volledige versie verschillen van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'ZOR's early access will be polished, as bug free as possible and feel close to a complete game. It will have a tutorial, intro run, and a repeatable procedural mode called Pilgrimage.
At full release the game will have more content and bosses, a meta progression system, and the final narrative moments. Also steam features like achievements and cloud saves, will be supported by launch.'

Wat is de huidige staat van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'Currently the game has a tutorial, an introductory trial, and the main pilgrimage mode with three regions and 4 bosses. A region is a unique environment and leg of the journey with a full slate of enemies and interactive objects. Currently the regions are: Rugged Steppes, Thrix Warren and Maddening Murk.
The Astrolabe, the progression system, is about 80% complete and offers many game changing perk effects. Also, there are currently 4 Slorfs with unique traits you can unlock.'

Zal het spel anders geprijsd worden tijdens en na vroegtijdige toegang?

'The price will not change between now and release.'

Hoe zijn jullie van plan de community te betrekken bij het ontwikkelproces?

'We will be very active on steam and discord discussions, will continue dev diaries which will shift to prompting discussion around upcoming features, as well as listening via our other social channels.
We intend to do a rotating schedule of updates between tuning (QoL, bugs, polish, UX) and new content. The intent of this is to keep our work focused and maintain high quality throughout. Secondly it will help focus the feedback and discussion so we can get the most out of it.
How the community responds to the game, and what people care about most will drive development up to launch.'
