De ce acces timpuriu?

„Games of this type benefit greatly from community input during the earlier stages of development, and as a solo developer it's important to balance how time is spent. Input from the community will highlight the areas in which development time is best used to create a great gameplay experience. It is important to understand that the game is still quite early in development and that, while many of the core features of the game are in place, not all of them are as fleshed out as they ultimately will be. The advantage of Early Access is that feedback from the community can help guide the order in which these things get done, and the level of success the game receives in Early Access will determine what the game ultimately becomes.”

Aproximativ cât timp se va afla acest joc în acces timpuriu?

„It's currently unclear how long Early Access will last, though it is somewhat dependant on the community - the more features are requested, the more time it will take to implement them. My current estimate is 12-18 months, but that could very easily change as time goes on.”

Cum se va diferenția versiunea completă de cea disponibilă în acces timpuriu?

„The biggest changes between Early Access and the full version will primarily be more content. More dialogue, more crops, more adventure areas, more machines, more character customisation. Development of the simulation aspects of the game is something that's ongoing too; the goal is to create a world in which your actions have tangible impacts on the world around you.”

Care este starea actuală a versiunii aflate în acces timpuriu?

„Most of the core gameplay systems are in place, and content exists for the first full in-game season (though you can continue playing beyond this freely). You can plant and breed a wide variety of crops, interact with over two-dozen NPCs, construct buildings and raise animals and build some basic automated machinery.

Exploration zones are implemented but are currently limited in the amount of content they provide.

All of the core features mentioned in the "About This Game" section exist within the game currently, though almost all of those areas of the game will receive significant content updates during the course of development.”

Jocul va avea prețuri diferite pe durata accesului timpuriu și după părăsirea acestuia?

„There are currently no plans to change the price after Early Access ends.”

Cum intenționezi să implici comunitatea în procesul tău de dezvoltare?

„Community feedback will be vital in determining which features are prioritised during development and which parts of the game need tweaking. Community participation is also a great source of inspiration for future ideas that might not have been considered before.

The current plan is to release an update every 6-8 weeks, along with a post on our website detailing the current state of the game and the general plans for the following update. The community can help shape these updates by posting on the Steam Community forum, or by contacting us directly on social media.”
