Wozu Early Access?

„I ran out of time to develop the game. My estimates before was for me working on the game full time. Almost a month ago, I was hired by another studio and from there I got busy adjusting and I still need to move to Toronto.

Every other part of the game is good except for online multiplayer. Players can still use that feature, but there will be noticeable bugs. This is something that I wish to eliminate over time.

I also want to get feedback from players for balancing. As we are under quarantine for the past few months, it is impossible for me to have local tests in my area. Some robots may feel overpowered at the moment, but surely this will change.“

Wie lange wird dieses Spiel ungefähr den Early Access-Status haben?

„Early access should be done by the end of this year.“

Wie soll sich die Vollversion von der Early Access-Version unterscheiden?

„The online multiplayer experience should be a lot better. Little to no bugs, much more balanced robots and gameplay.

UI elements should look a lot more intuitive and appealing.

Additional audio like crowd cheers will be added.“

Was ist der derzeitige Stand der Early Access-Version?

„The game is already in a playable state. Everything aside from online multiplayer should be good. You can still play online multiplayer but it has some noticeable bugs.

Online multiplayer is also not optimized and fps will drop significantly compared to offline mode.

Unbalanced robot stats and super moves.
