Почему ранний доступ?

«It's important that I get external feedback so that I may steer the game into the right direction while I still can – as more code is written, as more of the game's story is completed, the game has a tendency to "set" in the same way that concrete does if left alone to dry.

Therefore, the goal of making my game early access now, is to constantly utilize the players' feedback to shape and continuously mold the game through each update.

Likewise, Early Access complements my style of releasing smaller, but more frequent builds; player feedback has a chance to directly influence the game with a much shorter turnaround time.»

Сколько примерно эта игра будет в раннем доступе?

«Until the core game loop develops a substantial level of replayability and depth.»

Чем планируемая полная версия будет отличаться от версии в раннем доступе?

«I consider the Early Access version to be a microcosm of the full version – that is, I do not expect any major changes to the framework, rather there will be much more content, interactions, minigames, etc in the full version.

As I work towards the full version, I plan to have:

• better level designs that are more aesthetic and pleasing to explore
  
  
• increasingly intimate minigames that further immerse the player into the experience
  
  
• even more monster girls than are currently in the Early Access version

Изменится ли цена игры после выхода из раннего доступа?

«No. The game will always be free / free-to-play.»

Как вы планируете вовлекать сообщество в разработку игры?

«I can only playtest the game so many times before my mind becomes numb to what I'm experiencing; I need other people to play my game and tell me if it sucks or not so that I may have a chance to improve it.

With the feedback from the community, I'll be able to tell what exactly needs to be worked on / changed / removed, as opposed to trying to figure out the game's direction by myself.

Instead of wasting time on issues that may end up not having as large of an impact as others, I can always use the community feedback as a compass to make sure I'm always working on the right thing.»
