Varför Early Access?

“Runa & the Chaikurú Legacy has been in development for quite some time already. It's been exciting, and we've had lots of fun watching people play the demo and the first chapter of the game. We are working hard on finishing the content and polish it to make it its best possible version.

We believe the game is now ready to be opened to all members of the community. We look forward to your feedback so we can make the game even better. And hopefully, you'll also have some fun playing most of it before anyone else.”

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

“Our plan is to have it be in Early Access for between 4 to 6 months. This is based on the current content we have planned, so it may change depending on development and feedback.”

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

“The 1.0 version will include all the content, while the first version of the early access will include about 60-70% of the main content. More content will be added through updates as it is ready for players.

There are also some missing features that we are planning to include in the 1.0 version, like customizable controls, difficulty adjustments, auto-detection of video settings, achievements, replayability features, etc.

There are also some ideas of player progression that we are planning to implement in order to make the artifacts and collectibles more attractive and useful. These won't be included in the early access since they are still not ready for players.

Finally, polishing never stops. The 1.0 will be more polished, have less bugs, and have better performance. Your feedback will be especially valuable to focus polishing on the most important parts.”

Hur är det nuvarande läget i versionen med Early Access?

“The Early Access version is very close to what will be the final experience of the game. It includes 60-70% of the content of the game, and it finishes with a small cinematic that sets up the story for what follows.

The current build has:

• Platforming mechanics mixed with action-adventure elements
  
• Environmental puzzles. New mechanics introduced gradually through the game
  
• 19 playable scenarios laid out in an interconnected world
  
• 3 distinct unlockable skills both for mobility and combat
  
• 6 different enemies
  
• Tons of collectibles
  
• 1 boss fight with 4 different stages
  
• Adaptive music
  
• 50% of the story implemented in game with several NPCs and monuments to tell it

”

Kommer spelet att prissättas annorlunda under och efter Early Access?

“Yes. Since the Early Access version won't include all the content, it will be priced at a discount. This will also be a way to thank players for supporting the development of the game from early on.

We don't plan to increase the price of the game during Early Access, only after we leave.”

Hur planerar ni att involvera gemenskapen i er utvecklingsprocess?

“Players can talk directly to us through our Discord server. They can also reach us through Steam or through social media. We'll be collecting all the feedback and will be using it to focus our development resources.”
