Miksi Early Access?

I am choosing Early Access so that I can gather player feedback in an open setting, and apply that feedback to make Shell of a King a more enjoyable experience for everyone!

Miten kauan peli tulee arviolta olemaan Early Access -vaiheessa?

Around 1 year.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

I plan to remove as many bugs as possible, while still introducing exciting new features such as more bosses, enemies, items, secrets, puzzles, NPCs, quests, and cutscenes. I also plan to expand on the story and worldbuilding to create a more cohesive and fantastical world. I lastly hope to balance Shell of a King in such a way that it is fun for players of all skill levels, without damaging the integrity of the experience.

Mikä on Early Access -version tila tällä hetkellä?

The game is completable with 3 endings and features many hours of unique gameplay through tough bosses, non-linear exploration, quirky items, and various puzzles. Shell of a King is nearly complete content-wise but is lacking in general polish.

Muuttuuko pelin hinta Early Access -vaiheen jälkeen?

Yes - Though I am committed to keeping Shell of a King at an accessible price. Buying the game in Early Access will give you access to the core game for a smaller price tag, and a better say in how development progresses by providing feedback and ideas. After Early Access, the price will increase slightly to reflect a more complete and finished product.
