Why Early Access?

“As a small development team of three, we know there will be hiccups and problems along the way. We also think the game is great but want feedback and error reports from a plethora of players. The more involved the players are in providing feedback and ideas, the better this game can become. We would like to see this game grow into a game that all players will enjoy and keep coming back to time and time again.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We do not know but, would hope we can be completed in Early Access within a year to a year and a half. But please keep in mind could stay in Early Access for up to two years.”

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

“Things we hope to implement compared to things that will be implemented:

Future Implementation:
.Add localized Language Settings to fully function for both the game UI and speech controllers to talk to ghosts.
.Add Caricature Customization so players may choose their players style
.Add full controller support so players may use game controllers for the game.
. Add more levels: (Prisons, Temples (Asian, Middle East), Caves, Cathedrals, Villages, Malls, Clubs, Silos/ Bunkers, Factories, Castles, Deserts, Islands, Schools (Japanese/ American), Sci-Fi Base, Apartments, Harbors, Boats, Trains, Farms, And More)
. Add an AI (like/ dislike) comment section to the game so players will feel more like actual streamers loading up content for views.
.Add more ghosts based on real-life ghosts and demons
.Add a fully integrated VR version to the game
.Add the ability to change the player’s cell phone in-game to match the player’s style
.Add the ability to update players’ starting room
.Add more ghost animations and player animations
.Add Steam Achievements

We hope to implement this maybe will go more off of ideas from the fan base.

.Add the ability to change players’ rooms around
.Add a mobile version of the game so players may be able to play on the go
.Add localized player pages (will vary based on fan base)
.Add more ghost-hunting gear (based on fan base)
.Add Steam Achievements and Trading Cards (based on fan base)

We hope to have all this done within one year and a half to two years max.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Right now, the game Scared Tube currently has the following.

.Single Player or Multiplayer up to 4 players (On multiplayer plays on the medium level of all players level combined)
.12 Inventory Slots and ghost-hunting gear
.12 Ghost
.6 Levels (Office, Hotel Onsen, Japanese Garden, Cemetary, Haunted Woods with Cabins, and an Abandoned Village)
.Player starting room
.Player Social Status (Level and game Pay Level also affects how the ghost hunt)
.Player Self correcting system (meaning players generally stay and grow in a system that can add and subtract from players’ level system. AKA, if you cheat, don’t think the game won’t knock you down to your actual level)
.End-level checklist completion likes and dislikes.
.Full Controller support
.Voice recognition system for some ghost interaction”

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

“After many updates and moving to the final stages the game may see a slite increase in price due to production, development, and maybe highering of more staff.”

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