Hur är det nuvarande läget i versionen med Early Access?

“All features described or shown on our Steam page (along with much more) are currently implemented, tested, and playable. In its current state Icaria has dozens of hours of content and a progression that unlocks new mechanics and ways to engage with the game over much of that time. While we haven’t finished the end yet, it’s a big sandbox and there is plenty to do.”

Hur planerar ni att involvera gemenskapen i er utvecklingsprocess?

“Our demo has been public for over a year and, during that time, we have taken feedback and bug reports both from our Discord and from the Steam Community page. That feedback has resulted in 3 major updates and scores of minor updates which have dramatically improved the game. We will continue to follow much the same process through Early Access.”
