De ce Acces Timpuriu ?

“Since this is the first "Final Stardust" title/installment I want to get as much player feedback as possible before launching the 1.0.0 build. I also want to make sure the game is well balanced for full release.

Honestly, I am not an avid TCG player myself so I am not sure people will be satisfied with the first version I am going to release. I want to listen to people who have more experience than me in this regard to make sure the game turns out great in the end.

Even though this is my first commercial title, this game will represent the future games that will release under the Final Stardust brand so I think it would be awesome to have the community involved from the very beginning.”

Aproximativ cât timp se va afla acest joc în Acces Timpuriu?

“Until it's ready. I would expect something like 6 months to get enough feedback and make sure the battle system is fully balanced. However, I don't mind leaving it open for longer (one year or more) to add extra features that the community asks for.

I plan to update the game quite often since most of the heavy work has been done already. In the end, I want people to love this game and continue to support the Final Stardust brand moving forward.”

Ce diferențe vor fi între versiunea completă, finală și cea aflată în Acces Timpuriu?

“It will depend on the community. All the core features are complete and all the assets are made. So it shouldn't take too long to add more content and have the game ready for full release.

That being said, players might ask for certain features that can be useful for everyone and I will try to implement those even if I have to extend the early access.

The full release version has to be able to compete with the biggest card games out there, at least in terms of quality. I am not interested in DLCs so once I release the full version I will move on to the sequel.”

Care este starea actuală a versiunii aflate în Acces Timpuriu?

“All of the core features are implemented and all the main assets are complete. You can choose one of the 4 standard decks (venus, mercury, jupiter, mars) and fight against 21 different characters!”

Va avea jocul aflat în Acces Timpuriu un preț diferit față de versiunea finală?

“The price might increase with the full release. The early access will be cheap and will have many sales to make sure as many people as possible can join the community.

Since I want to build a brand and not just a game, I think this is the better route. What I mean is how many people play the game matters more than how much the game makes.

Early access also means early contribution so I think it makes sense to reward people who help you improve the game.”

Cum dorești să implici comunitatea în procesul tău de dezvoltare?

“The whole battle system will be balanced based on player feedback. I have implemented all the ideas I wanted but now it's about creating a fun experience for most people. Discord will probably be the key platform for that.”
