¿Por qué Acceso anticipado?

“Developing a puzzle game requires putting a lot of care into balance, especially for head-to-head play. Feedback from players has been and continues to be invaluable for improving Polymino's quality of life and balance.”

¿Cuánto tiempo va a estar este juego en Acceso anticipado aproximadamente?

“I expect the game to be finished in 2025.”

¿Qué tan diferente será la versión completa de la versión de Acceso anticipado?

“There are two main areas which need improvement before release: completing all game modes and adding more visual/audio content. Examples of visual/audio content include unlockable cosmetics, more music, and alternate sets of sound effects.
Once the game's soundtrack is completed, the plan is to also make it available as a seperate purchase on this Store page.”

¿Cuál es el estado actual de la versión de Acceso anticipado?

“The game modes which currently exist are:

• Classic: 1-4 players, try to get the highest score possible as the game gets progressively harder. This mode is mostly complete, future additions are expected to mostly be quality-of-life changes.
  
• Junk Attack: 2-4 players, the goal is to outlast your opponents and use special abilities to tip the balance in your favor. This mode is substantially complete but still requires testing and balancing.
  
• Gauntlet: this mode is essentially Junk Attack for 1 human playing against 1 bot. Each time you beat the bot, a new round begins and the bot's AI becomes more challenging. This mode will be tweaked alongside Junk Attack since it uses the same basic rules and abilities, but will likely receive some tweaks of its own, such as to the bot's AI.
  
• Puzzle: A more relaxed mode for 1 player. You start with a full board, but no more blocks are added. Your goal is to get as many points as possible with the starting board. This mode is pending a major rework to make it more distinct from Classic mode.

Current unlockable content (gained by earning Steam achievements):

• Alternate appearances for blocks, junk pieces and projectiles
  
• Alternate backgrounds and HUD themes
  
• Alternate particle effects when destroying blocks and junk pieces
  
• Sound effects packs (in addition to the default, there are currently two which can be unlocked as of writing)

¿El precio del juego será diferente durante y después del Acceso anticipado?

“I may raise the price of the game by a small amount once it leaves Early Access.”

¿Cómo tienes planeado involucrar a la comunidad en tu proceso de desarrollo?

“I want players to be involved in steering the direction of new game modes and helping to balance the game modes which already exist. It will also be very helpful if players take the time to report any bugs they encounter in the game. I want to accomplish this by communicating with players in the game's and the Steam Community Discussions.”
