Miksi Early Access?

As this game was made initially for a solo University project with less than 3 months to develop, Breakout Planet is lacking the content which I want to add to make it complete in my eyes. In order to create the game I dream of I will need the help of the community to provide crucial feedback, having the game listed as early access enables us to achieve this

Miten kauan peli tulee arviolta olemaan Early Access -vaiheessa?

Sometime in 2021 the game should be within a stable enough state to come out of early access. Currently there is no exact date however, depending on player feedback I may add some extra features into the game which could set development back further.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

• New enemies
  
• New mechanics which can be used for strategy & tactics
  
• Unique and better animations
  
• Better audio (sound effects and music)
  
• More levels, including more dialogue and different characters to engage with
  
• Even more Steam integration with leaderboards, trading cards, achievements
  
• Better Saving and Loading
  
• Difficulty settings
  
• More settings customisation, including option to change keys
  
• Controller support
  
• Optimisation
  
• Cinematics

Mikä on Early Access -version tila tällä hetkellä?

Currently the game features:

• 4 playable levels (including a boss fight)
  
• 3 abilities
  
• Multiple conversation and points of interest

The game can be complete within one hour, this is an average that I have come up with due to current play testers feedback. However, the pool is very small so this could be a different time for you.

The game is decently optimised and gives players the opportunity to change graphics settings as well as audio settings to their own preferences.

Muuttuuko pelin hinta Early Access -vaiheen jälkeen?

The price is not expected to change once Early Access is complete.

Miten yhteisö otetaan mukaan kehitysprosessiin?

Improvement cannot be made by one person alone. Seeking your feedback will be crucial to improving the game and finding the nasty bugs that may be lurking deep within. Comments can be made anonymously however to achieve the best results, videos and images will provide more clarity on the identification of issues.
