Why Early Access?

“We have a strong belief that a direct connection to your players is the most valuable and most effective approach to making a great game. We want Electron to stand out and convey our creativity and artistic process, but we also need that invaluable feedback that only a community like early access can provide.
We have many cool content ideas planned, and feel this approach allows us to connect with players and get a strong feel for exactly what it is they think about what they are playing.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect to remain in early access for approximately 1 - 3 years, during which time, we will continue to add updates and bug fixes for each of the games included within the platform as well as new content in any games that have promised to do so in the main description.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“Everything is subject to change

Electron is a concept in which we are building a core space game, with many mini-games that you can play on the side!

Visiting special places, such as the arcade in a Space Station, or the various simulators that we will implement, is an example of how to access these mini games.

As we proceed forward from early access, towards a full release we expect Electron to be feature rich, and bug free!

The full scope of where we want to take Electron is vast, however nothing is set in stone at this point.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Currently We have some of the base framework completed!

Electron - fly around the universe, mine asteroids and dock at the space station, attack enemies. Inside the space station, you can upgrade your ship in the maintenance bay, view the Starmap, and try out the turret simulator.
We are very much an early access game.

The Turret Simulator - is a mini game in which you are stuck in and must stave off ships as they fly in and attack you.
It is a 3D arcade style game, in which you shoot down incoming ships. More will come as time goes by, for now its just very basic!”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“For the first month following early access launch, the game will be available for free.
After this we will increase the cost of the core game by a very small amount.

After full release the game will sell at a standard retail value of that of similar games in its class.”

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

“Our main method of intercommunication with our community will be through discord.
We intend on developing a wiki as soon as possible as well.”
