Pourquoi choisir l'accès anticipé ?

« This is the first game I have created on Steam. Doing this with the help and support of Shadowbunnie (another solo developer) was a very daunting task for me and we are both excited to be able to bring this experience to Steam.

The primary reason for early access is to allow community input as early in the process as possible so that changes can be made during the completion process of the game. We would like to deliver a fun and unique experience and community input is vital in that goal. We are planning to add additional items, enemies (with unique AI) and game modes over the early access period with direct input from the community.

Given that we are just 2 people there will also inevitably be a number of bugs and other items to address after launch as well during the early access period (as we don't have the testing resources of a full studio).

Releasing the game now allows us to get important user feedback at a point in development where the game can benefit most from additional constructive feedback. »

Pendant combien de temps environ ce jeu sera-t-il en accès anticipé ?

« After release it will be in early access for approximately 4-5 months. This may change based on community input. »

En quoi la version finale sera-t-elle différente de la version en accès anticipé ?

« The released version will have 3/7 completed dungeons. In the final version there will be additional dungeons, side areas, added enemies, items and game modes as well as anything else the community would like to see. »

Quel est l'état actuel de la version en accès anticipé ?

« At this point it is a pre-alpha version. The game would have 3/7 of the main dungeon areas available at launch and will include features listed in the "About This Game" section below.

While the dungeons are all randomly generated the additional areas still need to have custom enemies and items created in order for them to be implemented. This will be achieved over the early access launch period in the months following release. »

Le prix du jeu sera-t-il différent pendant et après l'accès anticipé ?

« As new content and features are added the price will gradually increase. Since the game is not completed yet it is unfair to charge the price of the full game at early access launch. »

Comment comptez-vous impliquer la communauté dans le processus de développement ?

« Feedback or Bugs can be sent to andrewhickeygames@gmail.com or through the game forums on Steam. Our goal is to involve the community through polls or direct feedback in order for the community to have impact on the roadmap of the game during the early access stage. This may include suggesting balancing changes, adding specific items or enemy idea suggestions. »
