Why Early Access?

“Voice of Belldona already offers a complete and highly replayable roguelike deckbuilding foundation, including deckbuilding combat, blessings, allies, progression systems, events, and multiple build paths. However, we still want to continue improving the game through real player feedback, especially in areas such as balance, content variety, UI/UX, localization quality, and overall polish.

We chose Early Access because we want to develop Voice of Belldona together with the community through active player feedback, rather than staying in closed development for a much longer period of time before release. We believe this approach will help us create a more complete, balanced, and satisfying Full Release experience.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We currently expect Voice of Belldona to remain in Early Access for approximately 6 months.

During this period, we plan to continue expanding the game with new systems, cards, blessings, events, allies, difficulty options, story content, balance updates, and localization improvements. If development progresses smoothly, the Full Release may arrive earlier. However, we currently want to leave enough time for proper polishing and iteration to ensure the final version reaches the level of quality we aim for.”

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

“The Full Release version is planned to significantly expand and polish the current Early Access version with additional content and improvements, including:

More cards, blessings, events, and allies
Additional difficulty options and challenges
A more complete Story Mode experience
Additional systems and gameplay mechanics
Further balance improvements
Improved UI/UX and quality-of-life features
More polished English localization and text improvements
Additional optimizations and adjustments based on community feedback

Our goal is for the Full Release version to provide a more complete, polished, and content-rich experience while preserving the core roguelike deckbuilding gameplay foundation.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current Early Access version already includes the main playable foundation of Voice of Belldona and offers a complete, highly replayable roguelike deckbuilding experience.

The current version already includes:

A complete core deckbuilding combat system
120+ cards
50+ blessings
Multiple progression and build paths
Multiple explorable regions and enemies
Recruitable allies
40+ narrative events
Difficulty progression and replay-focused content
Complete run-based gameplay loops

While we still plan to continue expanding and polishing the game during Early Access, the current version already provides a substantial amount of content and a fully playable gameplay experience.”

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

“We currently plan to slightly increase the price of Voice of Belldona when the game transitions from Early Access to Full Release.

During the Early Access period, we plan to continue expanding the game with additional content, gameplay systems, balance improvements, and overall polish. Because the Full Release version is expected to offer a more complete and content-rich experience, the final price may increase accordingly.”

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

“We primarily plan to use Discord and QQ as our main platforms for communicating with the community, allowing us to maintain fast and efficient feedback and interaction channels with players.

As long as players share discussion-worthy feedback, suggestions, questions, or ideas related to Voice of Belldona on these platforms, we will do our best to respond and communicate as actively and quickly as possible whenever we see them.

Throughout the Early Access period, we also hope to continue improving the game’s balance, content, UI/UX, and overall gameplay experience through community feedback, while allowing players to actively participate in the growth and development of Voice of Belldona.”
