Varför Early Access?

“Fatal Terminal is developed by two people who are eager to share their vision of a game that combines the genres of retrofuturism, sci-fi, coop rogue-like, and horror with the public. At this point, this is our main working activity, and we are fully dedicated to this project. However, to keep in touch with the community, we aim to reach a certain stage in development, release Fatal Terminal in Early Access, and start fully interacting with the community regarding potential implementations and changes in the game, as we plan to add 3-4 times more content compared to the earliest version available for purchase.
Upon entering Early Access, one type of location and specific obstacles and entities associated with this type of location will be available, but the game will already be fully playable both solo and with friends. The procedurally generated missions will contribute to the uniqueness of gameplay situations even in the early version of the game.
We have a development plan for the game, which we intend to adjust while communicating with the player community. Our idea is for Fatal Terminal to start shaping up as a unique platform after its Early Access release, and we want to develop this platform together with the community.”

Ungefär hur länge kommer det här spelet att vara i Early Access?

“We plan to finish the development of the main content by the end of 2025.”

Hur är det tänkt att den fullständiga versionen ska skilja sig från versionen i Early Access?

“Our plans for the final version of Fatal Terminal include having 3-4 times more content than at the Early Access launch. We aim to increase the number of location types to at least 3, and accordingly, the list of monsters, anomalies, and obstacles that players will encounter will be expanded. Additionally, we plan to significantly increase the number of languages available in the game.”

Hur är det nuvarande läget i versionen med Early Access?

“At the time of the Early Access release, the game will offer cooperative gameplay through procedurally generated missions in one type of location - tasks from the SovCosMosCorp corporation. Formally, this is already a complete game that can be played either solo or with friends, encountering various unique situations each time. The difference from the final version is that, at the start, it will not feature content related to other types of locations.”

Kommer spelet att prissättas annorlunda under och efter Early Access?

“Depending on the sales results and the level of expenses for the development and evolution of Fatal Terminal, we allow for a minor increase in the price of the final version of the game relative to the Early Access price. But at this moment, this is not being considered at all; we just want to be honest and think ahead about what might happen in the future.”

Hur planerar ni att involvera gemenskapen i er utvecklingsprocess?

“We want to showcase regular changes and updates to Fatal Terminal across various media sources, including the Steam community, and regularly discuss possible changes with players. We believe that good ideas for the game's development, if feasible within our concept, should be considered and, where possible, integrated.”
