Porquê Acesso Antecipado?

"From the very beginning we wished not only to tell but also to show the kind and climate of the gameplay. One picture beats a thousand words as they say :) That is the reason we created a kind of „The Prologue” for the lost circus story. Starting the adventure we meet the main character of the game: a mysterious Clown. Lots of time and effort we have input into building a proper environement and mood for the story. We do not utilise any preset or out of the box models for our production. All the things You are going to see are designed and built from scratch, giving a solid, compact and details-packed believable vision. The huge amount of work we have input into the Prologue lets future Players to appreciate what to expect in the final version of the game."

Aproximadamente durante quanto tempo vai este produto estar em Acesso Antecipado?

"We’ve been working on the Prologue for six months. Right now our team is much bigger and more experienced so we believe that the full version of the game will take about eighteen months of developement."

Qual vai ser a diferença entre a versão final e a versão de Acesso Antecipado?

"The current narration lets us know what happens to a person brave enough to visit the haunted circus in a very unconventional way. We travel about the place sitting in the old barrell stuck on the rusty cart, pushed by nice and apparently friendly Clown. We start a sightseeing, which ends suddenly in a very suprising way (we aren’t going to spill the beans now :)). In the full version of the game we’ll have a choice of the method of our movement: cart ride or free walking which allows us to discover all by ourselves the dark secrets of the place. "The Prologue” version is more of an „Interactive OnTheRail adventure” with some interaction with the environement included from time to time. As for the final version, it will be fully interactive place for the Player to enjoy and roam freely in. We will also meet new characters, ex members of the Circus crew, or better said: the remnants of them. If we get lucky, we will discover the mystery of the empty and abandoned Circus and why it still lures trustful visitors into its cursed ground.
We are going to design new concept of a VR gameplay not seen in the other games. We will not constrain the interaction only to moving objects or firing cutscenes when some hot spots are approached by a Player. As said before - our roots are in the movies industry. We have produced 5D movies for theme parks so the animations, special effects, plot twists and proper narration assuring the intensive and realistic entertainment is „the pond” we are freely swimming in for a long time."

Qual é o estado atual da versão de Acesso Antecipado?

"The first version of our game was produced for the Theme Park „Global Village” in Dubai and was a great commercial success. The game provided fun and thrilling experience for all the guests who dared to enter the cursed Circus. The „Prologue” is a fully playable event lasting for 8 minutes and providing a score summary at the end of the adventure. We also enhanced all the original textures to fit the new generation of VR googles like PIMAX 5K or 8K, adding more details and realism to our journey. We have now a complete script for the full final version and now working on all the technical aspects, like models, new environements and game mechanics for even deeper immersion of Player in the dark world of the Circus."

O jogo vai ter preços diferentes durante e depois do Acesso Antecipado?

"It all depends on how financially demanding the production will turn out. It all surely needs a lot of time and work, we take it seriously and high quality for us is a standard. Also the new approach for a gameplay demands lots of trials and testing so the final price will be higher for sure, we just have to try to keep it down on reasonable level."

Como estão a planear incluir a comunidade durante o processo de desenvolvimento?
