Чем планируемая полная версия будет отличаться от версии в раннем доступе?

«Gameplay

As of now (04/2022), 5 levels are projected to be available, each with their own genre of music, level events, and new talents to help overcome those level events. The core gameplay will remain the same: destroying keys to increase points/score; however, the methods used to effectively destroy the keys may change.

Aesthetic

Certain level elements may change in appearance, but only as an improvement/enhancement to their current appearance (i.e. volumetric fog may be used in place of particle system for more realistic light occlusion/diffusion). Also, with the release of Unreal Engine 5, it is highly probable that updates to Rhythmic Keyboard will make use of that engine version, primarily for its Lumen feature.

Steam

Implementation of Steam achievements and cloud saves is planned.»

Каково текущее состояние версии в раннем доступе?

«Fully functional with: one level, 20 songs, three difficulty modes, complementary talents, and multiple save slots.»

Изменится ли цена игры после выхода из раннего доступа?

«Rhythmic Keyboard will remain a fixed price during Early Access (excluding special discounts). Upon full release, the price for Rhythmic Keyboard will increase not more than double its Early Access (non-discount) price.»

Как вы планируете вовлекать сообщество в разработку игры?

«The Steam community hub for Rhythmic Keyboard will be the primary resource for community involvement, with the potential to set up a Discord server later on in its development.»
