Miksi Early Access?

Lost in Red Valley is a game developed by a solo dev. There are still bugs that need fixing and extra content to be added. It's an incredibly ambitious project and it will require extra time and user feedback to complete. At the moment the game is at a decent playable stage.

Miten kauan peli tulee arviolta olemaan Early Access -vaiheessa?

Half a year to a year.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

Full version of Lost in Red Valley will feature a completely different map (much bigger in scale) than Early Access. It will feature extra dungeons and places to explore. It will also have new gameplay features: like a ritual system and world events. Ritual system will allow players to temporarily transform into bosses they defeated and traverse the most dangerous areas of the Red Valley. World events will include random mobs spawning during certain times of day as well as hazardous lightning storms and earthquakes. Full version of the game will also feature a complete story, behind the events of the Red Valley.

Mikä on Early Access -version tila tällä hetkellä?

Lost in Red Valley is in a decent playable state. Players can explore a 2 square kilometre map, craft items, build a base and slay some monsters. It also features 2 dungeons with rare resources. It has dynamic time of day, respawnable resources and a variety of items players can use to survive, build and fight. It does, however, have some animation issues and monster AI can be buggy.

Muuttuuko pelin hinta Early Access -vaiheen jälkeen?

Price might increase moderately upon full release. Alternatively, I might keep pricing the same, but release paid DLC's instead.

Miten yhteisö otetaan mukaan kehitysprosessiin?

The more feedback I get from players, the better the game will be upon full release. Being a solo developer is extremely hard and any extra input will be appreciated and implemented. Players can contact me on Steam forums, my personal email or Twitter account. Ideally, players should join Discord channel dedicated to the game and post any question or bugs right there.
