เหตุใดจึงเป็นช่วงระหว่างการพัฒนา?

“The game is still a work in progress with the core mechanics, 5 classes, and 3 maps with plans for additional classes, maps, enemies, etc but before continuing to add new content I would like to make the current version available to let players try it out and provide feedback so changes to systems, mechanics, and balancing, as well as bug fixes can be made ahead of finalizing the additional content.”

เกมนี้จะอยู่ในช่วงระหว่างการพัฒนานานเท่าไรโดยประมาณ?

“I hope to have the game in EA for a period of less than 6 months, possibly quite a bit less, depending on the amount of changes I decide to implement based on feedback.”

เวอร์ชันเต็มได้ถูกวางแผนไว้ให้แตกต่างจากเวอร์ชันระหว่างการพัฒนาอย่างไร?

“The 5 current classes are what I consider the "Tier 1" classes. I plan on adding an additional set of 5-10 "Tier 2" classes which will be unlocked by reaching certain goals, which may be added either by or shortly after full release. I also plan to add an additional 3-5 maps during Early Access, each of these maps containing new types of mobs and mechanics not seen in the existing maps.”

สถานะปัจจุบันของเวอร์ชันระหว่างการพัฒนาเป็นอย่างไร?

“The current version is fully playable and has 5 classes each with 2 weapons/skills (a primary and secondary). The classes are:

Archer
Warrior
Rogue
Mage
Priest

Upgrades can be purchased for gold for both primary and secondary after selecting your desired class, and additional upgrades to your base stats and your primary weapon/skill can be gained by leveling up during each run.

The game currently consists of 3 maps / levels:

Meadow - The 1st map which is a pretty straightforward survive for 30 minutes lvel with 2 mini-bosses and a final boss. Completing the level with a class unlocks the next map for that class.

Cave - Still a pretty straightforward 30 minute survival map but with 4 mini-bosses and an additional mechanic where an altar becomes active when each mini-boss spawns. Failure to deactivate the altar in time causes that mini-boss to spawn again during the final boss fight making it more difficult, but also allowing you to earn additional experience and gold if you prefer. Completing the Cave with a class will unlock the 3rd map for that class.

Labyrinth - The 3rd map which consists of a maze that you must navigate through while fighting off enemies and working your way to the final room with your reward and a boss fight consisting of 4 different elemental guardians with unique attacks. While navigating through the maze a magical sentient portal can appear and hunt you down. Kill it while dodging its attempts to hit you. Getting hit by the portal will teleport you back to the start of the maze (you do not lose anything, you just have to find your way back through).”

เกมจะมีราคาเปลี่ยนแปลงไปหรือไม่ในระหว่างและหลังจากช่วงระหว่างการพัฒนา?

“Currently I plan to keep the price the same for both EA and full release.”

คุณกำลังวางแผนให้ชุมชนมีส่วนร่วมในขั้นตอนการพัฒนาของคุณอย่างไร?

“I will be monitoring feedback & reviews posted in Steam as well as making an email address (werkhousegames@gmail.com) available for players to reach out directly with feedback and bug reports. I will also likely open a Discord channel / server for the game as I get closer to the full release.”
