Varför Early Access?

“LIFELIKE is an episodic game, which allows me, as a developer who often works solo, to release content more frequently. As episodes are added, you will be able to update your game to receive them!

Early Access also allows me to incorporate player feedback more smoothly. As an Early Access player, your feedback contributes to quality of life updates as development occurs, so that I am quickly able to update your feedback with each episode, as opposed to retroactive changes.”

Ungefär hur länge kommer det här spelet att vara i Early Access?

“LIFELIKE will be Early Access until the final episode is complete. This is estimated to be some time in 2024, though new episodes will continue to release up until that final date. Please keep in mind that I am the sole developer in-engine and this date is subject to change.”

Hur är det tänkt att den fullständiga versionen ska skilja sig från versionen i Early Access?

“The full version of the game will complete the story and feature all levels in the select screen. This will add roughly five more hours of gameplay, bringing the game to about seven hours in length.

While the scale of the game’s map will remain the same as it is in Early Access, each episode will expand on combat capabilities with new attacks and enemies, new flavor text, and story to unfold.”

Hur är det nuvarande läget i versionen med Early Access?

“Currently, LIFELIKE has two released episodes (about two hours of content), with the next available soon. Please read the ‘About This’ section of the page for more information on the features currently available in game.”

Kommer spelet att prissättas annorlunda under och efter Early Access?

“Yes. As episodes are released, the price will go up. Think of it like a preorder: the sooner you buy, the lower the price will be! Purchasing the game at any time covers ALL episodes. You will NOT need to pay for future episodes.

This pricing structure respects the time and money I have spent on this project. I am one person working with a handful of contractors, as I add more content, the price will reflect the work I have put into it.”

Hur planerar ni att involvera gemenskapen i er utvecklingsprocess?

“While LIFELIKE's core gameplay is finalized, hearing from players is extremely valuable to me. I have already tweaked the game based on feedback and am always open to hearing more—it helps me prioritize changes and additions.
