Proč předběžný přístup?

„Ruins to Fortress is an indie game made by a two-person team. Since it's a multiplayer game with lots of features and items, there's a lot of work involved. We're launching in Early Access to get help from the community in testing the multiplayer and making sure everything works well. Your feedback will help us improve the game as we continue to develop it.
As an indie game studio, it is very difficult to release a multiplayer game because you compete not only with other small indie studios but also with large studios with major titles. Most large multiplayer games are therefore free and are financed through expensive skins, pay-to-win elements, pointless in-game currencies, and unnecessary battle passes.
And believe us, we hate these mechanisms as much as you do and still fall for them often enough. That is why we have decided on a model that will be attractive to you and still cover the development costs.
Ruins to Fortress is free to play during Early Access and will remain free after the full release. We will offer one optional DLC, which will receive continuous updates with new content like skins. This will be the only DLC ever released for the game. Some skins will also be available for separate purchase, but there will be no pay-to-win content, in-game currencies, or similar systems.“

There may still be some bugs in multiplayer, but after releasing a demo, we were able to fix and polish a lot based on what we learned from it. Players can host games themselves, and a dedicated server is already available for running the game 24/7.“
