เหตุใดจึงเป็นช่วงระหว่างการพัฒนา?

“Roughly 8 years ago, while working in the kitchen at a ramen shop, I had the crazy idea to make a video game. Since then, Cirrata has grown into a deeply personal solo project a labor of love that’s taken shape through late nights, hard lessons, and a whole lot of passion.

As a solo developer balancing a full-time job, I’ve realized how much more I could do with the support of a community behind me. The hand-drawn art, mixed animation styles, and handcrafted world design are incredibly time-intensive but they’re what give Cirrata its heart. Early Access gives me the opportunity to dedicate more time to the game while also opening the door to player feedback, which is something I value immensely. Being able to focus on Cirrata full-time would be incredible and Early Access could make that possible.

เกมนี้จะอยู่ในช่วงระหว่างการพัฒนานานเท่าไรโดยประมาณ?

“That depends largely on the momentum and feedback I receive—but my goal is to spend at least a year in Early Access. With community support and input, development can progress faster, and the vision for Cirrata can truly grow. The more feedback I get, the more focused and polished the final game will become.

เวอร์ชันเต็มได้ถูกวางแผนไว้ให้แตกต่างจากเวอร์ชันระหว่างการพัฒนาอย่างไร?

“The Early Access version is just the foundation—a solid starting point for something much larger. By 1.0, Cirrata will have:

• 4 additional biomes (for a total of 6), each with unique enemies, hazards, and bosses.
  
• 50+ stackable food power-ups to tailor your playstyle.
  
• 10+ secondary weapons, each with 3 unique attack tiers.
  
• A customizable frog bar hub, which grows as you progress.
  
• Tons of secret rooms, destructibles, and Easter eggs.
  
• Foraging and food crafting systems.
  
• Animated cutscenes, and a fully hand-animated intro.
  
• Additional elemental damage types, starting with lightning, along with elemental synergies.
  
• A wider cast of intractable NPCs with new interactions and side stories.

Your feedback during Early Access will help shape what else makes it into the final release.

สถานะปัจจุบันของเวอร์ชันระหว่างการพัฒนาเป็นอย่างไร?

“Here’s what’s already playable in Cirrata right now:

• 2 biomes: The dark Underground and the early-stage Sky Islands.
  
• A working central frog bar hub with food mechanics.
  
• 12 food power-up items, each with unique buffs or abilities.
  
• 4 secondary weapons: Throwing Knife, Cleaver, Sauté Pan, and Meat Tenderizer—each with 3 upgrade levels.
  
• Currency collection (TOMI), randomized item generation, and shops.
  
• About 1–2 hours of gameplay, depending on your approach.

It's early, but there's a LOT more planned.
”

เกมจะมีราคาเปลี่ยนแปลงไปหรือไม่ในระหว่างและหลังจากช่วงระหว่างการพัฒนา?

“Yes. The Early Access version will be heavily discounted to reflect the limited content. Once the game launches as version 1.0, the planned price is $16.99 USD. Buying in early helps support development and gets you all future updates at no extra cost.

คุณกำลังวางแผนให้ชุมชนมีส่วนร่วมในขั้นตอนการพัฒนาของคุณอย่างไร?

“Player feedback is at the core of Cirrata’s development. I’ll be actively engaging with players through:
The Steam Community Forums: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1183270/discussions/

The Official Discord Server: https://discord.com/invite/8Qe2gm56U6

Your thoughts, ideas, and bug reports will directly shape the game's future. I’m always listening, and I can’t wait to hear what you think.

It’s been a long journey to get Cirrata to this point, and I’m beyond excited to finally share it with you. With your support, this strange, food-powered world can grow into something truly special.
