為何採用搶先體驗模式？

「I believe that the game will do better in Early Access because it makes it less stressful for me as the developer as it gives me more freedom with what I make. This way if I think I might add one feature but it does not fit well in the game, I won't be locked in on that and there will be a bit more leeway when it comes to adding/removing features.

Another reason why the game is Early Access is due to time constraints, I still expect to regularly update the game and I plan to do so for a long time, but I likely will not be working on it 24/7, so content might take a bit longer to release in Early Access versus a full release. There are also many features that I have planned or want to add and I can't in my own mind consider it as a Full Release until I get those finished.」

這款遊戲的搶先體驗時間大約會持續多久？

「Early Access will likely last quite awhile, but it all depends on how fast features get implemented, bugs get discovered and patched, etc. We currently have no estimated date for leaving Early Access.」

正式版預計會與搶先體驗版有何不同？

「The full version is planned to be less buggy (although obviously that's also the goal for the Early Access version) and include many more features including localization for the game to be enjoyed by non-English speakers. We plan on adding many new enemies, different types of ores, lots of new core features, more story elements, more NPCs, etc.」

搶先體驗版目前的開發進度如何？

「The game is currently in a playable, stable, and overall a pretty solid state. Features are being added very quickly and bugs are being patched basically immediately. The game is still very early in development, it has a lot of potential, but even this early into development it runs smoothly and has plenty of features to enjoy.

If you'd like a full list of features, you can check out the About This section, it has a rundown of some of the key features.」

遊戲售價在搶先體驗期間前後會有所變動嗎？

「The price is not expected to change after Early Access, however, if there are larger content updates such as the addition of multiplayer, the price may need to change to reflect the new features, or they may be released as paid DLC.」

在開發過程中，您打算如何與社群互動？

「The community will be a huge part in the development process as it is my goal to read every review, bug report, and suggestion. Generally the players of a game have an even stronger understanding of how the game should be than the developers who make the game do, so suggestions are a massively important part in the process and I want to make sure that the community enjoys the game and doesn't have to worry about the game going in a bad direction.」
