เหตุใดจึงเป็นช่วงระหว่างการพัฒนา?

“This game is in early access because it delivers a continuously advancing and growing experience at the expense of bugs that one would otherwise not experience in a complete game.

It features many experimental game mechanics and systems unique to this game, and as such it is essential for us to receive feedback from the community to balance and refine them to perfection.”

เกมนี้จะอยู่ในช่วงระหว่างการพัฒนานานเท่าไรโดยประมาณ?

“Based on the current rate of development and remaining tasks planned before full release, I estimate full release to be around Fall of 2021.”

เวอร์ชันเต็มได้ถูกวางแผนไว้ให้แตกต่างจากเวอร์ชันระหว่างการพัฒนาอย่างไร?

“The early access version features peer-to-peer multiplayer combat, with a focus on a single-player experience to both introduce the player to the unique combat experience that Shuuji has to offer, and provide a leveling system for players to hone their skills in preparation for dedicated-server-based tournaments.

The full version will have online matchmaking, ranking, skins for weapons, and gamemodes outside of deathmatch.”

สถานะปัจจุบันของเวอร์ชันระหว่างการพัฒนาเป็นอย่างไร?

“The current state of this version is a mostly functional Sigil design platform, and a WIP multiplayer world. All features shown in videos exist in game, and will be made available on early-access once they are tuned to an acceptable robustness and quality.”

เกมจะมีราคาเปลี่ยนแปลงไปหรือไม่ในระหว่างและหลังจากช่วงระหว่างการพัฒนา?

“This game will initially be free in early access, and may increase to some small reasonable number later in early access.

Pricing may increase moderately when upon release. However, as monetization will be centered around aesthetics and quality settings (such as skins on weapons, background art, and audio enhancement), after release, regardless of updates, pricing will remain constant.”
