為何採用搶先體驗模式？

「“We want to make the best game we can, and even in beta we’ve learnt that working directly with our community is the best way to do that. Buoy is a huge world and we have lots that we want to add, and Early Access is a way for us to receive constant valuable feedback, collaborate with our players on what they want to see, and keep our players in mind at every step of the development cycle.”」

這款遊戲的搶先體驗時間大約會持續多久？

「“For at least one year, but depending on player feedback and the amount of content we choose to put into the final game, it may take longer.”」

正式版預計會與搶先體驗版有何不同？

「“There is a ton of great content we want to deliver with Grounded, but more importantly some of the ideas and features may change dramatically based on the feedback we receive from the community. Our current plan for the full release is to have the following features:

• Steam Achievements and Cards
• More environments and biomes
• More crafting recipes
• Additional features and updated systems to improve the entire experience”」

搶先體驗版目前的開發進度如何？

「“Many core mechanics and features are present and polished. The Early Access version of Buoy boasts a boat-load of items to craft, types of creatures (including monsters, animals and bosses), crops to grow, underwater and dungeons secrets to explore, a solid building systemtypes of creatures including and much more! Of course, while much of the game is present and working, we hope you understand that as Buoy is still in active development you may witness the odd bug, and features are subject to change.”」

遊戲售價在搶先體驗期間前後會有所變動嗎？

「“No definitive plans here yet, but it is likely that the price will be increased over the course of the Early Access period.”」

在開發過程中，您打算如何與社群互動？

「“We currently use our Discord server and the Steam forums as our primary ways to talk to our community. Players are welcome to suggest new features and modifications in the "ideas & suggestions" chat channel. Upcoming changes are openly discussed with the community for early feedback. A closed test-group of players have access to the latest builds of the game and work closely with the dev-team. The test-group evaluates and tests new features and changes before they are released publicly. We will continue to develop this process based on the needs and feedback of the community.”」
