Wozu Early Access?

„You Are a Bird is launching in Early Access so your feedback can help me create a better VR bird sim.“

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

„~When it's ready~
You Are A Bird development is a battle against every convention of VR optimization and the new UE5 Beta version uses some of the latest Unreal 5 rendering tech and experimental features in VR. Not a predictable process overall.“

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

„Development plans include:

• A variety of bird species options
  
• Additional biomes like cities, snowy forests, and tropical islands.
  
• Humans to mess with?
  
• More prey animals.
  
• More survival elements (thirst, sleep, etc).
  
• 💩ing on humans, cars, statues, etc.
  
• Bird calls.
  
• Mechanically different diurnal and nocturnal birds.
  
• Predator animals on the ground.
  
• Improved dynamic audio.
  
• Improved flight mechanics.
  
• Improved visuals

Was ist der derzeitige Stand der Early Access-Version?

„You will encounter bugs, performance issues, and generally rough edges at this stage of development.
The older Unity version has been replaced with a full rewrite in Unreal Engine 5.

Bird flight simulation has been totally re-written based on real bird flight physics and is in a playable state.
Runtime procedural world generation has been replaced with more a detailed and optimized 56 square kilometer world.
Hunt rabbits and peck out their guts.
Many planned features are not ready yet ~but it's still fun to fly right now~

The older Unity version is still available in an optional beta channel named "unity"“

Wird dieses Spiel während und nach Early Access unterschiedlich viel kosten?

„Not planning to increase price.“
