為何採用搶先體驗模式？

「Sauna2000 was funded by successful Kickstarter campaign back in 2020 with the help of over 500 amazing backers. After that the game has been in development and gained fans all over the world, who have embraced the SAUNA and continue to motivate and inspire us every day. We believe that to make the best game possible is to get constant valuable feedback from the players and use that in EA on what our players want to see in the full release.」

這款遊戲的搶先體驗時間大約會持續多久？

「After about a year of early access, we intend to launch the full version. We will be releasing content in three separate patches. Upon completion, every update patch adds another "day" to the "weekend" long experience. The game's story unfolds over three days, but it doesn't actually last for three days. The game will be done, when its done and we are eager to publish the roadmap for upcoming content with the launch of EA!」

正式版預計會與搶先體驗版有何不同？

「For full version of Sauna2000 we plan to have over 30 voiced and acted NPCs implemented with story-arcs and twists of their own. At the launch of EA will have around 10 NPCs. Most of the core features will be in EA, but for an example: it will not have all the different endings full game has. Some of the gameplay features are linked with timeline that advances in-game, and with EA (that has the first day available) all of them are not present at launch.
Planned gameplay features:

• Fishing competition, orienteering competition, karaoke gameplay, over 10 original songs, Original songs can be found in game as C-cassette tapes that the player can then listen to on their in game walkman. Bicycles for faster travel, 5 separate planned horror environments and scenarios that will take the story to disturbing depths. Just make sure you don't bring anything back from these realities.
  Different types of saunas and other traditional midsummer activities of Finland.
  

Some of the gameplay features, that are linked with advancing of the timeline in game are not present at the launch of EA.」

搶先體驗版目前的開發進度如何？

「"Perjantai-Versio (Friday-Version) that we launch our early access with has one out of three weekend days full of fun stuff to do available at launch. Discover your neighbors' stories as you attempt to figure out who stole your sauna heating equipment. In the course of the day, you can help neighbors and borrow tools and sauna heating necessities from them, so you can heat your sauna for Friday evening! Get acquainted with Finnish sauna traditions as you chop logs with an ax, gather water from the lake, and heat the sauna! Visit the gas station, or buy your groceries from the bus-market, Jarmo's store on wheels! There are also some eerie secrets hidden in the forests, that will lead you to all new worlds if you investigate your surroundings carefully. Just be cautious, not to get pulled under by the dark forces! The Friday scenario has multiple endings that will take you to many unexpected journeys, even to some multidimensional expeditions. We'll keep adding content during EA for feedback and testing.」

遊戲售價在搶先體驗期間前後會有所變動嗎？

「Our current plan is that pricing will be increased after the full game is released. Meeting the high-quality standards we have set for ourselves having higher revenue from the sale will help us to implement all the free seasonal expansions post release.」
