Pourquoi choisir l'accès anticipé ?

« We believe that Early Access is currently the best way to proceed with the release and continued development of our game, as it would give us a direct line of contact with players, and we'd be able to add/remove/change features depending on direct feedback! Our game is a visual novel with 4 distinct routes, focusing on 4 different characters - we plan on releasing each route one at a time, starting with one completely finished route when we launch the game in an early access state, then continuously updating the game with the other 3 routes, alongside minor changes and updates to pre-existing routes depending on player feedback. The game has been in development for a long while now, and there are multiple reasons for that: we are a very small team, and the game is VERY large and full of different features. So, we don't want the game to be hidden away from people who have been waiting for it - we want to finally show people all the awesome stories that we've been working on! »

Pendant combien de temps environ ce jeu sera-t-il en accès anticipé ?

« We plan on this game being in early access for around a year and a half/two years - we are going to try releasing each route every four-to-five months - they are all written, and most of the assets have been created, but they still need some "finishing touches". »

En quoi la version finale sera-t-elle différente de la version en accès anticipé ?

« We plan on the finished game featuring all four routes, alongside minor and major updates to the previously released routes, such as new art, music, and scenes. »

Quel est l'état actuel de la version en accès anticipé ?

« We plan to release the early access (the one containing the first finished route) in March of next year, alongside the Steam Visual Novel festival! »

Le prix du jeu sera-t-il différent pendant et après l'accès anticipé ?

« We plan on keeping a fixed price that won’t be altered from the launch of the Early Access version, to the final release. It will be priced in a way that we believe to be fair through each phase of the game’s development - even just one route features multiple novels worth of writing, dozens of backgrounds and sprites, choices, a fully usable phone system, etc. »

Comment comptez-vous impliquer la communauté dans le processus de développement ?

« We are going to set up a Discord for people to join, so as they can share feedback on the game directly with the developers, and can talk with similarly-minded people, discussing the game, making fanart, fan-theories, or just memes! We will also hold polls that anyone can vote on, to directly influence the game's direction! »
