早期アクセスにした理由

“We want to use Early Access to build the game with the community. Multiplayer roguelikes' success depends on community, and community shapes how the game will be expanded in the future. We want to ask and listen to the community's feedback. That said, we want to deliver Early Access that is fully playable and as bug-free as we can make it. We want Early Access to create a lot of new content, not a fully functional game.”

大体どのくらいの期間このゲームを早期アクセスにする予定ですか？

“We want to be in Early Access between 12 to 18 months. Our target is 12 months, but surely we do not want to be in EA for more than 18 months, no matter what.”

早期アクセスバージョンと計画されているフルバージョンの違いは？

“Early Access scope content wise is: 4 Coalition of Aspects (short-term progression), 2 playable characters (each with 50 M.O.D.S - our long-term progression), 2 full Biomes (each with 2 bosses and a minimum of 5 different enemy types), and 2 players co-op. In the full version, we plan to have: 5 Coalitions of Aspects, 5 playable characters (each with 50 M.O.D.S. ), 3 full Biomes, and 3–4 players co-op. It’s not set in stone, but we would like to change the game engine from Unreal Engine 4 to Unreal Engine 5 during EA.”

早期アクセスバージョンの現状はどうなっていますか？

“The Early Access version is already playable. 1 full biome, 2 characters, short- and long-term progression, and co-op are working. We are working on the 2nd biome and making a lot of improvements.”

早期アクセス期間中と期間後ではゲームの価格は変わりますか？

“Yes, based on the content, we plan for the full version to be priced higher.”

コミュニティは開発プロセスにどのように関わることができますか？

“In every way, we already have Discord set up, and we will engage the community to create a better experience through tests (we are working on special forms), listening to feedback, and having the community decide what to do in each game update. During EA, we want to release at least 1 big update every 2-3 months, adding more playable characters, balance changes, and new enemies.”
