¿Por qué ofreces acceso anticipado?

«Our development goals include shipping more levels and features across a period of time, and we believe shipping early access allows us to help build upon the existing playable project while examining player feedback and constructive criticism. As the game will ship with 10 playable levels, we would also like to launch as early access of Arsenal Shock to help expose a playable form of the game and help generate general interest/wishlists before we work on potential campaign content and some more gameplay features. Our goal is to have a more feature-rich game that we can exit early access that reflects what we learn and receive feedback on during the games early access period.»

¿Cuánto tiempo va a estar este juego en acceso anticipado aproximadamente?

«3 to 5 months.»

¿Qué diferencias habrá entre la versión completa y la versión de acceso anticipado?

«For the full version of the game we wish to achieve linear gameplay levels based on the same art direction of our arena levels. We plan on having more advanced singleplayer level design including fast paced combat, boss battles, puzzles and obstacles the player must pass through. We also aim to push out more gameplay features such as more weapons and powerups. We also aim to fix any bugs players might find in the early access version as well as other suggestions from players.»

¿Cuál es el estado actual de la versión de acceso anticipado?

«The current state of our Early Access version includes 5 finish arena levels, 4 finished cage match levels and 1 finished playground level. We currently have 4 out of the 5 weapons we want in the game and 6 different enemies, as well as a working combat soundtrack. The game has a basic options menu. We currently wish to ship an early access version in May with all Arena and Playground content.»

¿El precio del juego será diferente durante y después del acceso anticipado?

«After the early access we wish to increase the price a small amount if the linear campaign levels are shipped.»

¿Cómo tienes planeado involucrar a la comunidad en tu proceso de desarrollo?

«We will be pushing out more media content and responding to any constructive criticism, suggestions and feedback in our discussions or media outlets based on what we show during the development process. We welcome our players to post anything on our Discussion page and we will respond to it accordingly. We would also encourage our community to post screenshots, gameplay videos and tell their friends about Arsenal Shock.»
