Varför Early Access?

“I believe that Early Access will allow Hot Tiles to be a better game at the time of release. With feedback from a larger audience I'll see what parts of the game require improvement, and players may request useful features which I didn't think of — I'll do my best to implement them.”

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

“It will take roughly two-three months.”

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

“I plan to implement several usability features, change some of the visuals and add sound. The full version will also have more achievements.

Gameplay-wise no major changes are planned, so if you do not like what the game offers right now, it's probably not worth purchasing for you.

Depending on your feedback the plans might change.”

Hur är det nuvarande läget i versionen med Early Access?

“The core gameplay is ready. There are two game modes, you can select level sizes from 3x3 to 12x7, compete with your own highscores and earn some achievements. Puzzle progress can be saved to continue later.

There is no sound or background music right now.”

Kommer spelet att prissättas annorlunda under och efter Early Access?

“The price will most likely stay the same after the end of Early Access stage.”

Hur planerar ni att involvera gemenskapen i er utvecklingsprocess?

“I'll focus primarily on Steam community discussions and reviews since all players can easily access those.

From time to time I'll ask for opinions on implementing certain features or visuals, or if something should be customizable to fit more players.

Unfortunately, Steam does not allow polls so I might hold those at some external platform.

If players come up with interesting Achievement ideas, I'll add those to the game.”
