Hvorfor tidlig adgang?

“Due to its sandbox nature Buildmark naturally requires a builders community around it to receive actual feedback & inspiring content from real users and thus grow up in right direction. This is a first step to build this inspiring & creative environment were new ideas appears and impressive art being created on daily basis.”

Hvor lang tid vil dette spil være i tidlig adgang?

“16+ months till release version.”

Hvorledes kommer den fulde version til at være anderledes end produktet i tidlig adgang?

“More creative challenges to solve in Play mode, polished build tools to manipulate/setup objects and their properties in 3D space, better UI to tweak post effects on image.
Full List of additional options is subject to change but for now its like that:
- UI to change environment (control over sun/moon/clouds/precipitations/etc).
- UI to add & tweak water (local volumes and infinite ocean).
- Tools for characters importing & posing.
- Tools to play with physics.”

Hvad er den nuværende tilstand for versionen med tidlig adgang?

“Buildmark is using Unity engine (HDRP render pipeline) and it's ray tracing implementation without any modifications. Current gameplay/content status:
- There is a Play mode with two missions. "Night challenge" mission dedicated to experiments with real time emissive lighting, "Art challenge" mission is about importing jpg/png images or even video files from your computer to create a gallery in 3D space and tweaking environment objects.
- No physics (world is completely static), primitive character implementation, almost no sounds except footsteps.
- Play mode has an option to switch to path tracing rendering at any time. Contrary to real time ray tracing this path tracing tech can be used only to generate screenshots, but with very high lighting quality. Particles and water are not supported by path tracing, though.
- And there is a benchmark to test ray tracing performance of given hardware.”

Ændrer spillets pris sig under og efter tidlig adgang?

“After leaving Early Access with huge success(c) price will be subject to change because there will be more content, more features, more fun :).”

Hvordan har I tænkt jer at involvere fællesskabet i jeres udviklingsproces?

“Join builders community here on Steam or on Buildmark Discord server to see best screenshots achieved with real time ray tracing or share your own creations, leave feedback and post suggestions to improve UI/content, share your dreams & ideas about perfect sandbox game/tools. All this will help shape the course of Buildmark development.”
