Hvorfor tidlig tilgang?

«Fighting games, more so than most other genres, require a lot of community feedback. It's just me and a music composer working on the game, with no play testers. So its important to get the game out in the hands of real players as early as possible to get their input.»

Hvor lenge antas det at dette spillet vil være i tidlig tilgang?

«Over one year, potentially two.»

Hvordan er det planlagt at fullversjonen skal være forskjellig fra versjonen i tidlig tilgang?

«The 1.0 version of the game is planned to have:

• 16 playable fighters
  
• 16 stages
  
• Arcade mode
  
• Bonus games
  
• A beat-em-up mode
  
• Co-op for Singleplayer modes
  
• A story mode
  
• A tutorial mode
  
• Online play
  
• Complete list of mutators

With potentially more free content post-launch.»

Hva er nåværende tilstand for versjonen i tidlig tilgang?

«The current version contains:

• 2 playable fighters
  
• 3 stages
  
• 8 mutators
  
• Local Versus mode
  
• Endless mode
  
• Training mode

Multiplayer is currently LOCAL, however you can play online via Steam Remote Play»

Vil spillet være priset annerledes under og etter tidlig tilgang?

«The price will be raised when we leave early access.»

Hvordan planlegger dere å involvere samfunnet i utviklingsprosessen?

«The community will be very important when it comes to development. Players reporting bugs, suggesting balance changes, requesting features, and relaying their general thoughts on the game will be imperative to making the game as fun as it can be. You can best do this via the Steam forums.

Not just the thoughts from the core fighting game community, but also more casual players and people less familiar with the genre. My goal with Fighting Heart from the very beginning has been to make a fast and fun fighter that anyone can jump into and play, without having to learn 20 hit combos or movement tech just to compete. At the same time, I don't want the game to be shallow or solved into a flowchart.

The community will be indispensable in steering the game towards this vision; making something fun for fighting game veterans, button mashers, and everyone in-between.»
