Почему ранний доступ?

«My goal in identifying the game as early access is to communicate that the game is still in progress and I plan to continue development post-initial release. For more info about the current development progress, see "What is the current state of the Early Access version?".

I will identify the game as early access until it meets a minimum standard. For more info on the minimum standard, see "How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?".

To accelerate the game's progress to meet this minimum standard, I will receive community feedback about bugs, and desires from the game. For more info on how the community can send me their feedback, see "How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?".»

Изменится ли цена игры после выхода из раннего доступа?

«It is expected that the game will remain free but allow for optional payments (non-gameplay restricting options) to the developer.»

Как вы планируете вовлекать сообщество в разработку игры?

«If one wishes to join the public communities concerning the game and the ones that I will pay attention to, one can by participating in the Steam discussion boards or joining the game’s discord (https://discord.com/invite/67MvCTYMfy).

I will primarily use these communication hubs to investigate bugs. The community will be valuable for catching niche or difficult-to-replicate bugs.

The community can use the hubs to give ideas to add features to the game. I will try to incorporate them if they don’t distract from my vision of the game and don’t delay progress toward meeting the minimum standard for full release.

The community can use the hubs to express their priority to see a feature. I imagine that there will be forks in the road during development to add features. In these instances, the feedback from the community will aid in my decision-making on which feature to add first.

I encourage fan creations that are related to the game so long as they don’t infringe upon the copyrights of the game. I understand that these fan creations are ways the community shows their appreciation of the game and helps grow the community as well. One can post fan creations in the game’s discord.


I will provide development updates for the game on both the discord and Steam announcement pages. I will aim to give weekly updates about its development status. In these updates, I will highlight specific requests from the community or myself and indicate what stage of development it is in (ex. To-Do, Unit Testing, Integration Testing, User Testing, Done).

I will also try to answer as many questions concerning the game although there are some questions I can’t answer so please be understanding when I can’t answer a question.

Thanks for any support.»
