Why Early Access?

“"As big fans of party games, the Freaks United team makes it a point to create emotions between players in each session. To do this, we need the community to help us improve the game and allow us to offer a unique and fun experience for all users. Moreover, the difficulty of an asymmetric title is to balance the interest between the VR player and the PC/Mobile player. It is a real desire on our part to allow both players to enjoy the title and it is thanks to the feedback from the community that we will be able to achieve this. Early access is an opportunity for us to offer a complete, balanced and cool game for all our users."”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“"It is expected that the game will remain in early access between 2 and 3 months on the platform. This time will be necessary for the Freaks United team to finalize and optimize the game for a final release, scheduled for Q1 2022. The players are a real support for us to enable a release worthy of the community and their expectations."”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“"The features planned for the final version are :

- 10 playable levels
- 3 levels of difficulty (easy-normal-difficult)
- 5 mini-games
- 5 hacker abilities
- 4 in-game musics
- 2 musical themes

Of course, the entire Freaks United team will also be listening to the community for feedback or suggestions on potential content additions."”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“"Even in the early access state, the game remains perfectly playable and offers many features that will also be available in the final version of the game.

However, as the game is still under development, you will surely face some bugs in animations or textures for example or problems related to the overall performance or connectivity between devices.

Nevertheless, the Freaks United team remains vigilant in order to offer the most enjoyable experience.

Current features:
- 8 playable levels
- 5 mini-games
- 5 hacker abilities

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“"The price of the game will increase slightly between early access and final release depending on the amount of content added. The current early access price reflects our appreciation for all those who want to support us and help us achieve a complete and enjoyable game to play with friends."”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“"The process of creating a game is long and perilous. But we know in the studio how much the support of the community can be a great asset. Indeed, we want to succeed in creating a link between our game and the players who will live this experience. That's why it's important for us to include the community as much as possible, their opinions and feedback throughout the development of Do U Copy?.

So we regularly share exclusive content via our social media pages to keep our community informed of the development progress and especially to be able to receive and listen to the opinions given by our players. We regularly discuss on the game's Discord in order to really exchange with the community.

We also try to participate in some Twitch live to be able to exchange directly with the viewers and answer questions about the game or also about the management of a game studio or the process of creating a game. We try to be as close as possible to our community and it's always a pleasure for us to be able to meet and discuss with you.

Finally, we are planning to add a Level Editor to the game to let the community create and share their content. We have always been fond of this kind of content in video games and we wanted to give our players this possibility on this title. However, it won't be available right away, we hope you'll understand, and we'll keep you posted on the progress of this project very soon."”
