Hvorfor tidlig tilgang?

«SST is a classic indie game.

I have been developing the project for many years. The first version appeared back in 2012.

The project has been rewritten several times from scratch. The code is based on fairly deep research in the field of particle physics simulation and optimization of calculations for real-time execution.

Now I am finally ready to make a small part of the game open for Early Access. I want to form an active community, which is necessary to support further development.»

Hvor lenge antas det at dette spillet vil være i tidlig tilgang?

«The game will remain in Early Access for about 2 years.»

Hvordan er det planlagt at fullversjonen skal være forskjellig fra versjonen i tidlig tilgang?

«About 90% of the most interesting ideas are yet to be implemented. The pace of the featuring will depend on the community support.

- the capabilities of the graphical user interface will be extended
- new materials and constructor functions will be constantly added, such as electricity, light, radio waves, construction of mechanisms
- a genetic laboratory will be added, allowing the creation of the custom life forms, that can be trained with neural networks and populated into the virtual worlds
- the distant goal of this project is to create a universal constructor, that would enable players to create their own simulations, using the built-in programming language»

Hva er nåværende tilstand for versjonen i tidlig tilgang?

«Currently, two simulations are available:

* Planet - allows you to experiment with various substances and materials, including the ability to create your own materials

* Protobiome - a simulator of evolution. A virtual world, containing light, water, growing plants, and inhabited by evolving virtual organisms

The game is in the deep Early Access state:

- it may be unstable.
- it may also completely fail to run on your system.
- the game saves may become incompatible due to a new update being released.

Please try the free demo version before purchasing Early Access.»

Vil spillet være priset annerledes under og etter tidlig tilgang?

«Yes, the price of the game will gradually increase, in accordance with the new game features being released.»

Hvordan planlegger dere å involvere samfunnet i utviklingsprosessen?

«SST is a simulation constructor, so the development of the project is entirely based on the interaction with the community.

The features, that are most popular and interesting among the players, will be developed with a higher priority.»
