為何採用搶先體驗模式？

「When you play Diner at the End of the Galaxy in Early Access, you aren't just giving the team crucial support - you are also helping us evolve and shape the game. This is the type of game that is ideal for Early Access: a base building and management game with sandbox features that players can play and replay with different outcomes, adopting different playstyles and experimenting. We are also at the stage of development where fine tuning, balancing and introducing new content is the priority, and this is much better done with feedback and input from you, the players. We intend to encourage a community around this game as we work towards v1.0.」

這款遊戲的搶先體驗時間大約會持續多久？

「Optimistically, we'll be in Early Access for about a year. That should give us enough time to do what we envision doing with version 1.0 of the game. However, we are aware that if the community makes requests that we believe are feasible and will help the game's overall quality, we are open to extending Early Access for a few more months until we finish developing those requests and suggestions.」

正式版預計會與搶先體驗版有何不同？

「We plan on introducing quality-of-life improvements (something that's only possible with community feedback), a more balanced economy and some optimisation. We also have plans for new content, including a possible new faction, new events and missions, new art assets, music and SFX -- but implementing this content will depend on development progress.」

搶先體驗版目前的開發進度如何？

「Compared to other Early Access versions of similar games, you may find this one to be quite advanced in development already. It is a fully playable game with different play modes and end states. All core features are available and functional. While we have fixed many of the apparent major bugs, a few undocumented bugs may still exist and will likely be encountered in some cases.」

遊戲售價在搶先體驗期間前後會有所變動嗎？

「Yes, the Early Access version is priced lower than our planned full version price as a show of gratitude for the support of our players.」

在開發過程中，您打算如何與社群互動？

「We have plans on using both the discussion boards and starting a new Discord server to keep communications with players open. We constantly read and reply to player feedback (you can see we already do this in our current discussion boards). Player feedback, input and bug reports are going to be quite crucial to our roadmap to v1.0.」
