早期アクセスにした理由

“We want to collect feedback from players so we can iterate and polish the game! Also, while the game has complete mechanics and core story, the last quarter is missing a lot of ancillary narrative content and two dungeons.”

このゲームは大体どのくらいの期間早期アクセスですか？

“Due to limited interest, development of the game is on pause. We would love for you to play, enjoy and are very interested in your feedback! We want to return to finish The Long Journey in the future, but there is no official timetable for that at present.”

早期アクセスバージョンと計画されているフルバージョンの違いは？

“A lot of the character arcs will resolve more gracefully and the build up to the ending will be much less rushed through the addition of a lot of bridging scenes. There will be several more dungeons and minigames added, and both the narrative and mechanics will be polished, tuned and adjusted based on your feedback.”

早期アクセスバージョンの現状はどうなっていますか？

“The game offers 20-30 hours of playable content, 6 dungeons, 8 towns, all major characters and most of their abilities. The story is fully written for most of the game, including ending choices for the major characters, a grand conclusion and an epilogue.”

早期アクセス期間中と期間後ではゲームの価格は変わりますか？

“We intend to charge for the game eventually, probably either when it's content complete or when it goes out of early access. We won't charge anyone who already has the game for any of the content that's currently missing from the main release.”

どうやって開発プロセスにコミュニティを参加させる予定ですか？

“We really, really, really want feedback on the game from you! That's why the game is free right now :) We want to know what parts you liked or didn't, which characters you enjoy and which ones are boring, which dungeons you loved or hated, whose abilities you use all the time or never, which puzzle really tickled your brain, etc. Anything about whether you're enjoying the game or not is treasure to us!

The best way to give feedback is by joining the discord for the game, but you can also send us email. We aren't checking Twitter all that frequently, but we'll see it there eventually too :) If you provide us your contact info, either in game or in your communique, we'll get back to you with thoughts and reactions!”
