Varför Early Access?

“Pirates of Gravitae is mostly the work of a solo indie developer. I have focused my efforts on making the core gameplay as enjoyable as I can, and added a good amount of content to keep players busy for a while. However there is a lot more to be done before the game matches the complete vision that I have of it. Early Access will enable me to get invaluable player feedback, to understand what parts of it are resonating with the players and what parts need more time in the oven, which parts to prioritize and which bits are superfluous. My plan is also to grow the team, so that we can deliver all the exciting content and features faster and at an even higher quality.”

A longer campaign, more abilities, more collectible bonuses, more enemy types, more mission types, more more more! A story mode is also planned, in order to fully explore the unique flavour of the world of Pirates of Gravitae.”

Kommer spelet att prissättas annorlunda under och efter Early Access?

Hur planerar ni att involvera gemenskapen i er utvecklingsprocess?

“A well balanced game is critical for a good roguelike. The hope is that the community will provide feedback on a range of different aspects: encounter difficulty, usefulness of various abilities and bonuses, mission variety, general game responsiveness, and more. Understanding how the community interacts with the game will allow us to understand what parts of the development process should be prioritized.”
