Waarom vroegtijdige toegang?

'We chose to release the game in early access with the goal of fostering an organic and engaged community around its development. This approach allowed us to build awareness, identify and address issues through real player feedback, and involve the community directly in shaping the game’s direction and expansion.

Now, roughly two-thirds of the way through our early access journey, we feel this approach has been a success. The feedback, support, and participation from players have played a meaningful role in improving the experience and guiding our ongoing development.'

Hoelang blijft dit spel ongeveer in vroegtijdige toegang?

'Here’s a clearer and more informative version with a stronger focus on early access timing:

The game has been in early access significantly longer than we originally anticipated. This extended timeline is largely the result of expanding the project’s scope over time, as well as underestimating the complexity and development effort required. As a small studio with relatively low overhead, we made the deliberate decision to use this flexibility to continue refining and expanding the experience rather than rushing to a full release.

At this stage, we expect early access to continue for some time longer, as there are still key features, polish, and content we want to deliver before considering the game complete. While we are committed to being transparent about progress, we also want to ensure that the final product meets the quality and uniqueness we set out to achieve. We will continue to share updates as development progresses and will provide a clearer timeline once we are confident in a release window.'

Hoe gaat de volledige versie verschillen van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'The game is fully playable in its current state but I would like to add several more game changing mini-games, like running from the police, basketball pick-up games, home invasions, home protection. You will be able to play out the mini game or simulate the event. Character classes will have more special abilities that make each unique. More characters and character animations and a rogue-like story mode with branching narratives that will also add more depth to gangs.'

Wat is de huidige staat van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'Beta. The game is fully playable with few bugs to be seen. At this point its very RNG based but in the future mini-games with allow you to impose your will or simulate similar to what is currently available. Refer to the about section for more details.'

Zal het spel anders geprijsd worden tijdens en na vroegtijdige toegang?

'There will be an early adapters discount. We plan to gradually increase the price of the game as new content is added to the game until completion. I really want to reward the people that buy in early.'

Hoe zijn jullie van plan de community te betrekken bij het ontwikkelproces?

'If there are any bugs or feasible ideas that the community would like to bring forth, I am more than willing to accommodate. Characters, plotlines, game mechanics, features, ect... I personally have been wanting a game like this for a long time so I know there are other people out there like me that have this particular need that hasn't been scratched. I want players to have a sense of freedom that is difficult to achieve but with the scale of this game I believe it is entirely possible but the only way that could be done is with the feedback of the people!'
