“Len's Island is a massive concept made by a tiny studio based out of Brisbane, Australia. Early-Access enables stable growth of the game over time and supports the development of the full release of Len's Island.

The ideation journey for Len's Island started 4 years ago, as a solo project for the lead developer, Julian Ball. Over two years he had the support of one full-time game developer, and three part-timers supporting SFX, music and graphics programming. This team completed the base vision for Len's Island. Achieving the fully-fledged title and vision of Len’s Island would take more time, developers, and resourcing which was all made possible thanks to Kickstarter.

The development of the game was backed by a Kickstarter campaign, which enabled Julian and the team to self-publish Len’s Island. Giving the community admittance to an early access release will allow the development team, known as Flow Studio, the opportunity to fulfil the original vision of Len’s Island to completion.”

“Flow Studio is expanding in several areas throughout early access.
The main points of interest for future development are:

• Expanding the world and including different forms of random generation and a far bigger map.
  
• Adding more enemies, bosses, and dungeons. Including the expansion of the overall combat and dungeon crawling systems in significant ways.
  
• Progressing the farming and building systems to allow for more detailed and complex farming and home builds.
  
• Increasing the scale of the map and implementing new biomes and islands to uncover.
  
• Planning to add co-op multiplayer. However, please purchase Len's Island with the expectation that it will stay a single-player.
  
• Implementing new game modes and custom game mode tools.

There will be dozens of major additions and improvements to Len’s Island through Early Access that are not listed above. The above points are just a small selection of major improvements.”

The direction of your world is completely up to you with the freedom to carve your own pathway forward. Whether you’re building and decorating enormous castles and villas, creating a thriving farming complex, exploring the caverns and fighting enemies, or enjoying the simple life, chopping down the trees and trading with villagers.

This Early Access version will showcase all the possibilities of Len’s Island and give you a taste of what is yet to come as it develops further.”

Liệu trò chơi sẽ có giá khác nhau giữa và sau khi Truy Cập Sớm?

“Prices may increase over early access and onto the full release, although Len's Island will always be an indie game with indie pricing.

The early-access price reflects the amount of playtime and features the game currently has. Len's Island is currently incomplete and in some areas lacks the high-end level of polish, optimization and ease of access features that come with more expensive games.

It is expected that Len’s Island at full launch will see pricing increase to around $30 USD.”

“Len's Island owes its success to the community helping to build it. Julian Ball has created regular development diaries through the Flow Studio Youtube channel since day one and will continue to do so throughout the entirety of early access. Flow Studio takes feedback, reporting and the opinion of the community on board in all stages throughout development. You can engage with the developers on their Discord server and Steam forums and log your feedback on their websites.

The community of players, testers, artists, writers, content creators, and everyone in between work to constantly push Len's Island forward to become a better game for everyone.”
