Защо „Ранен достъп“?

„Virtu-Pilot was built from the ground up for the Meta Quest. Before we commit to a full release and while we work on performance optimisation, we wanted to get feedback from the community on key parts of the VR experience they enjoy so we could focus on those.

Releasing for PC is easier though and they are also certain features such as taxing and flight simulation model that still need a lot of work, esp. for the quest.“

Приблизително колко дълго тази игра ще бъде в „Ранен достъп“?

„12 months+, we are a small team working on this part-time and with your support it would be a dream to be able to work on this full time.“

Как ще се различава планираната пълна версия от тази в „Ранен достъп“?

„We are planning to develop an affordable community version to share the joys of flight and a professional version for those dedicated to climbing the aviation career ladder.

For the community version we want to have 1-3 wowing lessons that inspire people to take their first flight. We want to work with the community to iron out as many bugs as possible.

For the professional version we want to implement pre-recorded or game AI instructors, develop a progress framework and work with flight schools and instructors to expand the PPL curriculum - from first flight to first solo.“

Какво е текущото състояние на версията в „Ранен достъп“?

„This experience is best experienced in VR. Desktop mode is limited and more for people without VR headsets to get an idea of our vision.

There is sandbox 'pilot briefing room'
Lesson 1 is playable and completable, with some minor bugs when grabbing stuff.“

Ще има ли разлика в цената на играта по време на „Ранен достъп“ и след това?

„We plan to gradually raise the price as we ship new content and features.“

Как планирате да ангажирате общността в процеса Ви на разработка?

„Keen to work with flight instructors or schools on a ground school integration trial.
Would be great to hear the communities thoughts on key procedures they would like to learn and how we can make the steps easier to understand.

Donations would be greatly appreciated to accelerate development“
