เหตุใดจึงเป็นช่วงระหว่างการพัฒนา?

“The Forsaken Ruins is currently undergoing development as a university, final major project. It will release with basic-level specification, involving 3D audio, interactive puzzles, unique AI and interesting levels.

As of release there will be no save function within the game itself. I do hope you enjoy the game and any feedback would be greatly appreciated as I continue to develop the game further in the future.

After 3 years of studying Computer Games at university and only 4 months of development, I sure hope you can see the potential of The Forsaken Ruins!”

เกมนี้จะอยู่ในช่วงระหว่างการพัฒนานานเท่าไรโดยประมาณ?

“I estimate the game to remain as an Early Access title for 12-18 months after release.”

สถานะปัจจุบันของเวอร์ชันระหว่างการพัฒนาเป็นอย่างไร?

“Currently The Forsaken Ruins features:

• 5 Unique levels (Including a short chase scene at the very end)
  
• 2 Puzzles
  
• 3 Monster types (Each with the ability to harm and chase the player)
  
• Books and pages for puzzles and points of interest.
  
• Credits
  
• Settings Menu

The game is relatively short and can be completed in just over an hour. The Forsaken Ruins is meant to be played from the very beginning, however I have added a 'Level Selection' scene as well, so players can experience all levels.

The player can interact with torches, explosive barrels, skulls, stools and chests!

The game is fairly optimised and players should not experience any frame rate issues. I am currently working on a Settings menu as we speak. For more information about what to expect from the game, please read the 'About This' section.”

เกมจะมีราคาเปลี่ยนแปลงไปหรือไม่ในระหว่างและหลังจากช่วงระหว่างการพัฒนา?

“I believe due to the amount of new additional content on the way and fixes, the game will slightly increase in price.”

คุณกำลังวางแผนให้ชุมชนมีส่วนร่วมในขั้นตอนการพัฒนาของคุณอย่างไร?

“Community feedback will be paramount for the growth of The Forsaken Ruins! I hope people understand I do not claim to be the best, however I like to think I work hard. I would greatly appreciate any feedback and by downloading The Forsaken Ruins you will greatly support me also!

I intend to use a variety of methods to obtain your feedback, for instance I will be creating surveys every other month and posting the link via The Forsaken Ruins Community page. In addition, there will be frequent blog posts (via Tumblr) about upcoming updates to the game so you will not be left in the dark!

If you encounter a bug, I would be grateful if you could post the report using text, pictures or videos via the forum page. For the game to grow into a successful horror game, I will be engaging with you directly through these methods.
