Miért a Korai Hozzáférés?

„We are striving to make the ultimate skill-based and co-op roguelike. Early Access is the next step on this journey. Getting players in the game and providing feedback on existing functionality, as well as new features to be implemented, is critical to pushing the game to the next level. Prior to Early Access, we have been running in a closed beta with two dozen players, as well as running an open beta for one week that had over 1400 players. We are ready for the volume of feedback and suggestions that can only be achieved through Early Access.”

Körülbelül mennyi ideig lesz ez a játék a Korai Hozzáférésben?

„It is challenging to say— this is largely dependent on the community's feedback. The ultimate release goal is to have the game feeling like it is full and complete, where we would still continue to develop additional content and functionality. Update: Based on Early Access progress, we are targeting full release Summer of 2024.”

A tervek szerint miben fog különbözni a teljes verzió a korai hozzáférésűtől?

„While the core game is developed, and playable start to finish, there is much to add prior to release. The first primary focus is expanding on already developed core features. This means adding additional worlds, levels within worlds, enemies, bosses, upgrades, elemental schools and abilities, etc. While the end-game frameworks have been created, there is much to be added to reach the level of replayability we desire. The second focus is to add additional features to the game. This includes ideas such as ability augments, powerups dropped on enemy death, and new features suggested by the community.”
