Hvorfor tidlig tilgang?

«Purple Eye is a one-man project still in development and in need of honest feedback. Only half an hour of gameplay is fully playable at the moment, many imperfections are visible, and no music or voice lines are included yet - for all these reason, it would be unreasonable to not publish this game in early access.»

Hvor lenge antas det at dette spillet vil være i tidlig tilgang?

«No official date for the end of the early access shall be announced for the moment, but it is estimated to be done in August 2024.»

Hvordan er det planlagt at fullversjonen skal være forskjellig fra versjonen i tidlig tilgang?

«While the game follows a linear story which outline and core concepts I intend to stick to, I remain open to any suggestion or criticism the players may have, which may lead to changes in the final product.
In any case, the first version is only 30 minutes long and new levels will be added periodically, until we get to the final product. As such, an evolution will be observable and the more the early access version progresses the more it will ressemble the final product.
Other extra content and modes, such as an arcade mode similar to Resident Evil's Mercenaries, may be added in the final product, but this is not the focus of the early access, which will be centered around the main story until it is complete.»

Hva er nåværende tilstand for versjonen i tidlig tilgang?

«Currently, the game is evidently unpolished, far from finished with only 3 levels, unoptimized, and only has VFX and ambience for sound. Several gameplay mechanics like stealth, combat and enemy AI are still under work and currently not present in the game. I wouldn't blame anyone for not wanting to spend time on it, but in any case this first version remains playable and does have the core features of Tank Controls, traversal and interaction implemented, and gives a foretaste of the story's tone.»

Vil spillet være priset annerledes under og etter tidlig tilgang?

«At the moment the game is totally free for an undetermined period of time, and a tipping option will be added. I hope to be able to keep things this way even after the game is fully released, but nonetheless reserve myself the right to give it a price in the future.»

Hvordan planlegger dere å involvere samfunnet i utviklingsprosessen?

«I'll try to read as many reviews as I can and be available on social media or by mail. A Discord server has been created and is accessible here :
A subreddit may be created as well.»
