왜 앞서 해보기를 진행하나요?

“Given the somewhat uncommon gameplay, it soon became apparent that the best approach we could take is to involve testers during development to ensure the mechanics are, well, fun, and the best way of achieving that is Early Access. With each test from outside the team we’re seeing all kinds of helpful feedback from fixes to new takes on the mechanics (including some simply evil level ideas) and we’d love to have the opportunity to explore that further. Early Access has enabled these discussions and has shown us exciting avenues that our internal roadmap could never have predicted.””

얼마나 오래 앞서 해보기를 진행할 계획인가요?

“We’re aiming to work on the game until it's a suitably complete experience and currently we’re on track to have it enter a full version in Q1 2023. This is subject to change a bit depending on the feedback and funding sources though in general we'd love to keep creating content after launch too.”

정식 버전은 앞서 해보기 버전과 어떻게 달라지나요?

“The full version will include a bunch more levels in the single-player campaign as well as a level editor to allow players to create their own hazardous situations. We’re also looking to implement Steam Achievements, controller support, and more in-game content (new items & elements)”

앞서 해보기 버전은 현재 어떤 상태인가요?

“The core mechanics (element simulation system and character behaviour) are complete. Music/SFX, writing (English only for now) and the main 3D art & shaders are mostly complete. Fire, water, ice, and smoke are the included elements, along with a city themed environment, 15 levels, and 8 tools.”

“The price reflects the current state of the game and will go up to €20 upon reaching the full version.”

개발 과정에서 어떻게 커뮤니티와 소통할 계획인가요?

“During Steam Next Fest in April 2021, we were humbled when people who played or streamed the demo took the time to fill out surveys or join our discord to share their ideas and thoughts which led to a new set of tasks to prioritise – primarily including adding explosions, a total revision to the camera, UI changes, and improvements to pathfinding. That process involved more levels and a revision to the game’s world map too. In May 2022 we had the excellent opportunity to test with G.Round, where we received over a hundred reviews along with surveys and detailed critiques on Discord. Since then we’ve added an in-game bug/idea reporting tool that links directly to our Trello. A large part of the feedback came from Streamers who were kind enough to upload their playthroughs for us to pore over, it was immensely beneficial. We absolutely wouldn’t be where we are without the hundreds of comments, suggestions, and critiques, and are thoroughly excited for the next responses.”
