Miksi Early Access?

I intend to release Spryward episodically in issues. Early access starts with issue #1 and will continue till the completion of the first story arch. Subsequent issues will launch via early access devlogs till completed. Early access is a great way for me as a solo developer to collect feedback on the game as I work on each issue and make improvements to the base game.

Miten kauan peli tulee arviolta olemaan Early Access -vaiheessa?

Spryward will exit early access when the first story arch has concluded. Estimated completion somewhere between issues 6 - 8. I have no timeline for when this will be. I'm currently at issue 4 in progress. Spryward is my passion project. I work on issues here and there when I can.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

Spryward can save civilians via rescue events. 3 rescue events are currently implemented, trapped under car rescue, dangling from tall height rescue, and trapped in rubble rescue.

Muuttuuko pelin hinta Early Access -vaiheen jälkeen?

Price will not change when Spryward leaves early access.

Miten yhteisö otetaan mukaan kehitysprosessiin?

I read and keep spreadsheets of everything on the Steam forums. There are sub forums for bug reports & suggestions. With devlogs I intend to listen to community feedback to make appropriate changes / improvements. In devlogs I'll list changes made to the game and update you on my progress working on future issues.
