Varför Early Access?

“HYPERBOLIC Arcade Trading is designed for players to learn or improve trading skills in the context of playing a video game. It is in Early Access to collect feedback for the game polishing and direction.

The current version includes early iterations of most of the final game features and mechanics, and it's representative of how the finished product will be, including the look and feel.”

Ungefär hur länge kommer det här spelet att vara i Early Access?

“Depending on feedback and the final feature set, we anticipate that the game should leave Early Access after 4 to 10 months.”

Hur är det tänkt att den fullständiga versionen ska skilja sig från versionen i Early Access?

“The full version is planned to include:

- Day trading and swing trading modes
- Practice mode allowing replay of trading sessions.
- Fuller stats and performance tracking
- Over 50 stock years of price data for stock tickers such as AAPL, AMZN, FB, NFLX, and SPY
- Price data for cryptocurrencies including BTC, ETH, LTC, and XRP
- Forex pairs, e.g. EUR/USD, GBP/USD, and USD/JPY
- In-game tutorials
- More music and stage art
- More Japanese candlestick patterns

Additional features may be included depending on feedback and demand.”

Hur är det nuvarande läget i versionen med Early Access?

“The current Early Access version includes most of the core game mechanics and is representative of the look-and-feel of the final version in terms of visuals and music.

- Presently, the Early Access version is limited to five day trading sessions, and repeats once the fifth stage is reached.
- Placeholder (but real) price data is used. Real price data is courtesy of Alpha Vantage.
- A limited set of Japanese candlestick patterns are included, namely:
- Tweezer Tops
- Tweezer Bottoms
- One Black Crow
- One White Soldier
- Bullish Engulfing
- Bearish Engulfing
- Three White Soldiers
- Three Black Crows”

Kommer spelet att prissättas annorlunda under och efter Early Access?

“Access to the game is free initially, but it will be priced soon after we add upload improved builds. Pricing will represent the feature set and stage of the game, then gradually increase as the game gains features and eventually becomes the final product at a significantly higher price point.”

Hur planerar ni att involvera gemenskapen i er utvecklingsprocess?

Community feedback is absolutely critical to continue development and, address any issues, and decide the final feature set.
