Miért a Korai Hozzáférés?

„We have chosen to release a public Early Access in order to receive feedback and form a community around the game - dungeon crawlers and roguelites are both common genres, and we want to see what the community thinks and what the criticisms of the game will be so that we can hopefully make the game the best of its genre, and give it more unique characteristics to make it stand out from the rest. We think the best way to do this is to distribute the game widely, so that we can receive large amounts of feedback for it, more than can be received from beta testers alone.”

„The game will likely be in Early Access for between one to three years.”

A tervek szerint miben fog különbözni a teljes verzió a korai hozzáférésűtől?

„The full version of Aspect will aim to have a lot of replay ability, so is currently planned to feature many more:

• Enemies to fight.
  
• Weapons to fight them with (with a variety of new fun attack types to play with).
  
• Aspects to collect.
  
• Cave types to explore, and bosses for some of these caves (including plans for a dungeon crawler trope - a giant worm boss).
  
• New special features (such as the pickaxes in rocks already present in the game).

It is also planned to feature:

• Player customisation.
  
• Localisation.
  
• Controller support.

Milyen állapotban van jelenleg a korai hozzáférésű verzió?

„From a gameplay perspective, the current early access version is in a state where we believe it is a snapshot of what can be expected of the game - a large portion of the core systems planned for the game are in place, and there are a few examples of ways to interact with these in the game (5 unlockable Aspects, 13 enemies, 2 cave types, 36 weapons, and 20 achievements in this version), to provide a view of the final game (but with far far less content than the final game is planned to have). From a development perspective, the game is currently slightly beyond a foundational stage - many of the core systems are in place and the infrastructure necessary to add masses of new content is mostly in place. The current content is available to see in the "About This" section.”

Eltérően lesz árazva a játék a korai hozzáférés alatt és azt követően?

„It is likely that the price will rise after the game leaves Early Access, though no concrete plans for this have been made yet. The price should stay fairly consistent across future Early Access versions, but it may increase towards the end of development as we reach the final release.”

Hogyan tervezitek bevonni a közösséget a fejlesztés folyamatába?

„There is a link to the bug report form on the main menu of the game, so players can report any bugs they find, or give any feedback they have. We will read all reports we get, so your suggestions will be seen, and may make it into the game. We also have a Discord server, where we will take submissions for ideas for the game's future content, and we also recruit beta testers in this server to help us make the game the best it can be.”
