Why Early Access?

“Bongo Arena is an experimental game where the gameplay is about designing game AIs. The core gameplay is finished and there is certain content in it. However, I really want to collect players' feedback and refine the game while creating more content. Because there are multiple directions that I can work on and the community feedback would help a lot on this game's orientation.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“I have clear paths down the line. I'll share my thoughts in the community and collect players favorite ones to work on next. I'm also open to ideas that are not in my list, please let me know via my email or post in the community. My plan is to have cycles as per month to collect feedback, develop and release.”
