Waarom vroegtijdige toegang?

'Why Early Access?

Wicked Island is an ambitious open-world survival game with adult themes, set in a brutal post-apocalyptic fantasy world. Given the scope of the systems—ranging from dynamic faction AI to sandbox survival mechanics and narrative events—it’s essential to involve the community early to test and refine these overlapping features.

Early Access will allow us to:

Gather feedback on survival balance, progression pacing, and AI behavior.

Identify and fix bugs more efficiently across diverse hardware setups.

Improve world-building and adult content integration based on player expectations.

Evolve the sandbox systems into better story generators through player interaction and emergent gameplay.'

Hoelang blijft dit spel ongeveer in vroegtijdige toegang?

'I aim to release the game fully within 1 year of releasing in early access.'

Hoe gaat de volledige versie verschillen van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'We will strive to make sure the full version will have more quest content, enemy types, animations, locations and a more balanced player experience overall. A lot more polish of basic features is planned as well.
Several of the dungeon maps are being worked on to be more unique and varied. More questlines are planned as well as more NPC's and interaction between factions.'

Wat is de huidige staat van de versie met vroegtijdige toegang?

'The current version contains most of the main systems that will be in place in the full release and has many hours of content. Crafting, building, breeding, servants, quests, farming etc are all already implemented but will be fleshed out with more content during early access.
All features showcased on the store page about this are already in place.'

Zal het spel anders geprijsd worden tijdens en na vroegtijdige toegang?

'Yes, the early access game will have a discount applied for its duration.'

Hoe zijn jullie van plan de community te betrekken bij het ontwikkelproces?

'The community is always welcome to join our discord server to provide feedback and report issues. Many of the core features of the game are community suggestions.'
