Pourquoi choisir l'accès anticipé ?

« City 13 is my first 2D platformer project. I definitely don't want to rush in my work on the project, so I need the early access. There are many features that I plan to implement in the game (full storyline, multiple playable characters, more enemies, more gameplay options for the player, and so on). Without community feedback, I will not be able to make a high quality game enough to release a full-fledged product. »

Pendant combien de temps environ ce jeu sera-t-il en accès anticipé ?

« I plan to complete most of the planned game mechanics by the end of 2020 in order to start working on the plot. The game will roughly be released in the first quarter of 2021. »

En quoi la version finale sera-t-elle différente de la version en accès anticipé ?

« Significant gameplay innovations are planned, for example, character selection, improved balance, improved user interface, many new locations, enemies, bosses, skills, and so on. Special attention should be paid to working on the plot of the game. I plan to introduce a full storyline into the game with several options for the case scenario. The game engine offers a wide variety of possibilities and space for creativity and experimentation. »

Quel est l'état actuel de la version en accès anticipé ?

« Now the game has 11 main levels and 1 bonus level, more than 10 types of enemies and traps, 3 bosses, a soundtrack, a full-fledged RPG system (player leveling, skills, inventory, money, merchants). In technical terms, everything is absolutely stable, there are no errors/crashes.

While there is no main plot in the game, only a small part of what is planned has been implemented. However, this version gives a good idea of what the game is like now and what it will be in the future. »

Le prix du jeu sera-t-il différent pendant et après l'accès anticipé ?

« The price will not change throughout 2020. Now it is more important for me to get as much feedback as possible. In 2021, the price will gradually increase as new content is released. »

Comment comptez-vous impliquer la communauté dans le processus de développement ?

« Since now the game has no consistent plot, I plan to explore what other characters/locations people would like to see in City 13. I will communicate with players in Steam forum and launch the Discord channel to collect as many people feedback as possible. So, I will be able to create new levels in accordance with the most popular community suggestions. I will try to work specifically for my audience and together we will make a cool game! »
