Why Early Access?

“Abberant Rift, a solo dev project, is being released in Early Access because the current game content is fully functional, and the few missions already released are available to be played with an adequate level of enjoyment by itself, even if the game's present state isn't considered 100% polished and completed.
Feedback from users is important to me at this stage of development in order to achieve these goals and reach completion, to balance the gameplay, fix any bugs that exist and grow upon the missions with greater variety.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“6 months to a year approximately”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version is currently planned to include a full campaign with currently 6 acts (may be more or less in full release), each act is planned to contain 10 missions/cinematics to progress the story and slowly increase the difficulty and introduce new mechanics”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current state of the game is pretty late stage on the gameplay but still early on implementing the story and missions, an initial set of missions is available with gameplay for fighting, flying the ships etc, a few features still need to be implemented, refer to the about this game for a more detailed list of features”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The game will remain free and open source”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“I plan to always listen to feedback, with the communities help resolving bugs, balancing the gameplay and potentially changing gameplay where it is needed.”
