Hvorfor tidlig adgang?

“CRYO is in an unfinished and incomplete state. As we develop and release new features for the game, we require player feedback and analytics, to help us continue to build a product that players want. Early Access allows players to buy into an incomplete version of the game and help shape development as we push towards release. We had a lot of success with early access helping shape our previous title, Labyrinthine and we're hoping to achieve the same for CRYO.”

Hvor lang tid vil dette spil være i tidlig adgang?

“CRYO will remain in Early Access until we determine the game is fully prepared for official release. Our plans for the Early Access period include expanding the game's core foundation by introducing multiple maps and a variety of monsters. During this phase, we are committed to addressing any major bugs, resolving issues, and thoroughly balancing the gameplay to ensure a high-quality experience. We expect to have the game ready for full release within a year of early access. This would put it roughly at Q4 of 2025.”

Hvorledes kommer den fulde version til at være anderledes end produktet i tidlig adgang?

“During Early Access, CRYO will not feature all planned content. While the core features listed in the 'About This' section of the store page will be present, some may be incomplete. For instance, there may be fewer maps, monsters, and equipment compared to the full release. Certain features such as achievements, easter eggs, and collectibles may also be absent in the Early Access version. As we continue development, we aim to use player feedback to refine systems, introduce new features, and adjust gameplay. By purchasing the Early Access version, you are investing in a work-in-progress that is subject to change based on player input. The full release is planned to offer a more definitive experience, with fewer dramatic changes.”

Hvad er den nuværende tilstand for versionen med tidlig adgang?

“CRYO is fully playable but currently in an incomplete state. You may encounter bugs that could affect gameplay, as large-scale testing has not yet been conducted. All core features listed on the store page are present in the game, but some may be refined as development progresses.

Right now, we have a single map with another in development, two enemies with their own ai and a plethora of items from music players to motion detectors.”

Ændrer spillets pris sig under og efter tidlig adgang?

“Pricing for CRYO is expected to increase as we release additional content. However, our goal is to ensure the game remains affordable, offering players a cost-effective and memorable experience.”
