Varför Early Access?

“I would like to develop this game together with the players. I need feedback on both new ideas and bugs. I've already fixed all currently known issues, but I don't have a dedicated testing team and I'm working on this project alone.
Early Access feels like the fairest solution: players who are willing to support development and share feedback can get the game for a symbolic price and will also receive the final version when it is released.”

Ungefär hur länge kommer det här spelet att vara i Early Access?

“My current plan is to keep the game in Early Access for about one more year. It might be finished earlier, but this depends a lot on player feedback and which features and improvements turn out to be the most important for the community.”

Hur är det tänkt att den fullständiga versionen ska skilja sig från versionen i Early Access?

“The full version is planned to include a complete story with multiple endings. At the moment I have scripts written for 4 different endings, and my goal is to implement all of them for release. The number of endings may increase based on suggestions from Early Access players. In addition to the story mode, if there is enough interest, I would love to add a separate survival mode later on. I already have a fairly well-working random level generation system prototyped, but it is not included in the current version yet, because I need to finish migrating the entire project to a newer version of the game engine for it to work properly. So survival mode is not a promise, only the level generation is ready for it, but I would really like to add it to the game later.”

Hur är det nuvarande läget i versionen med Early Access?

“The current version includes the core gameplay mechanics and the foundations of the story. Right now I am in the middle of migrating the project to a newer version of the game engine. This has caused some headaches, but the process is progressing well and I can already see the light at the end of the tunnel. I previously had a much more advanced version of the game, but unfortunately that build was lost when I migrated the project to Unity 6. The upside is that rebuilding those parts a second time will allow me to implement them in a cleaner and more polished way.”

Kommer spelet att prissättas annorlunda under och efter Early Access?

“Yes. During Early Access the game is available for a small, symbolic price as a thank you to early supporters. For the full release I am planning a final price in the range of approximately 8–15 USD, depending on how much content and playtime the finished version ends up offering.”

Hur planerar ni att involvera gemenskapen i er utvecklingsprocess?

“I plan to involve the community mainly through the game's Steam community hub and forums. I'd like players to share constructive feedback, suggestions and ideas there. I will evaluate these ideas based on feasibility and how much they add to the overall experience, and I will try to integrate as many of them as possible into future updates.
I’m also very interested in feedback from players who like to "break" games and push systems to their limits. Please report bugs with screenshots or short videos whenever possible - this will help me track them down and fix them more quickly so that the final version can become a polished and truly enjoyable experience.”
