Miksi Early Access?

Kayak League has been in development for many months and is evolving rapidly.
In order to collect as much user feedback as possible, we have decided to work on an early access release, which allows us to reduce time-to-market and ensure that development is moving in the right direction.

Miten kauan peli tulee arviolta olemaan Early Access -vaiheessa?

The game will remain in Early Access as long as significant gameplay and feature improvements are being made. Core mechanics will be polished and game direction will be solidified through user feedback and in-game data collection.
As the game style, development direction and overall polish approaches an equilibrium, it will be time to prepare for the full launch.

We expect the game to be in Early Access for no longer than 2-4 months.

During Early Access, the following features will be developed, polished and finalized:

• Online Matchmaking
  
• Premade Parties
  
• Item Store
  
• Game Currencies
  
• Free Battlepass
  
• Steam Sync & Achievements

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

When the full game is released, the following features will be fully developed and polished:

• Competitive Matchmaking
  
• Full Loadout Customization
  
• Loot Boxes and Rewards
  
• Final UI and Sound Design
  
• In-Game Trading
  
• Type-Specific Matchmaking

Mikä on Early Access -version tila tällä hetkellä?

Players can compete in offline AI matches or online matchmaking, either solo or with premade parties. Players will be rewarded according to their performance and will be ranked on a global leaderboard for each of the specific courses, as well as unlock loadout customizations through the free battlepass.

Muuttuuko pelin hinta Early Access -vaiheen jälkeen?

In order to incentivize early player participation and feedback collection, the game will be priced lower during the Early Access phase.
The value of Early Access cosmetic purchases will be returned to the players at a multiplied rate as the game enters Full Release. This offers an incentive to support the game through in-game purchases during the Early Access.
